The 75 Years Commemorative Book design project sought to tell the rich history of Graham & Brown, with stories from the people, past and present, who make up its legacy.

At 260 pages, it’s no short story! The project involved in-depth research, a vast amount of creative design, and liaison with many stakeholders across the business. I worked closely with former Livingetc editor Suzanne Imre to write the story, which follows a dual narrative. People sections flow chronologically throughout, dotted between chapters that tell the history of key areas of the modern business.

I designed the full layout, trawled the company’s archives, oversaw new photography, and worked closely with the supplier to produce something truly unique – the cover is even backed in real wallpaper!
