OUGD504 - Design for Print - Location Information Cards

At the back of the Bond Street Brand Directory will be of tear out cards that feature the directory details of each of the Bond Street stores.

Although the publication will feature the store names, addresses and telephone numbers - naturally within a directory - I desire for the book to provide the target with extended usage and experience through tear-out cards that repeat the directory details from the pages themselves at the back, supplying a more convenient point of delivery of information once they book has been viewed. This addition would mean a greater level of interactivity could be achieved. Furthermore, it would challenge the normal circumstance of books becoming redundant once they have been read - put aside or on a shelf where it would stay indefinitely.

These cards will feature at the back of the book on a perforated grid that allows cards to be torn out without affecting each and every page of the publication as would be the case otherwise. This will create a structured, clean and functional aesthetic/feature to the publication maintaining the high-end design formatting.

The cards bring together all location information in one section of the book, supplying the target with enhanced usage, reader experience and functionality. The cards, which I anticipate will be spread over two double-sided pages, will feature the store name/brand word mark on the front and the location information on the back. They will follow on from a glossary page of all the stores featured in the publication for point of reference.

Below the glossary page and additional information cards are featured:






It is my ambition to gold foil each of the store/brand word marks in order to visually establish, represent and enhance their luxury connotations and therefore the publication context and content while generating further target appeal.
