Book Design: Vincent Van Gogh, Painted with Words

The Purest of Styles Excerpt from a Book Review by John Updike
“Van Gogh’s letters to Bernard form a blazing witness to this process, and a true testament — a testament beautifully presented, it should be said, in the catalog, a model volume of scholarship and of book design and manufacture.”

Architects Portfolio Book Design

This portfolio book is a showcase of an amazing body of work over the last 10 years by Louise Brooks & Vince Falotico. An Architecture firm in New Caanan, CT. We used a dove gray linen cover with a blind gloss embossed stamp on the cover to give it that subtle & classic edge. Inside pages printed on mohawk’s superfine soft white. There is something sentimental about looking at personal living spaces in print and I think this communicates well to their clientele.
