Invitations

This was an invite for a corporate year-end celebration at the historic Paragon Hotel in San Jose. The client wanted to give the event a nostalgic flair, so the design includes classical typefaces, Copperplate and Garamond Pro, and retro imagery. All the invites used a sprig of rosemary (known for its mental stimulation properties) as an unconventional clasp, sealing the invite, and holding the RSVP card in place. 

This was a handcrafted brochure and itinerary for a sales incentive trip, detailing the benefits and amenities, and outlining the schedule of events with executives. Cover was a double-gate wirebinding from textured stock. Costs were saved by having the letterpress score the binder for several stocks at the same time for future events. Inside pages were french folded.
