5 things that you don't know about the formats :

  1. How do they get the print onto the cardboard?
  2. How to bind and create a hardback book?
  3. How do they fold the box?
  4. How thick does the card have to be to be sturdy?
  5. How to print on to hardback book?

  1. spot varnish
  2. how to print onto cardboard without differing the colour
  3. binding a publication
  4. how to use different stocks in a publication

Favorite Example : 
clean, simple, minimal

3 Reasons why your favorite example is bad :

  1. no striking colour to stand out on shelf
  2. could be classed as bland
  3. not inspiring to get photography

3 reasons why your favorite example is good :
