Where to start with this gloriously challenging example of design and print?

Son approached us with his impressively assembled photographic ode to his local newsagent. The book on Fosters Newsagent, an institution in the south London area, featured a combination of images taken of each and every nook and cranny interspersed with detailed item by item listings of the shop’s products.

A book to chronicle such a study had to be equally impressive. It contains three different paper stocks which alternated almost every 2 pages throughout the book. Uncoated was chosen for the lists and gloss added vibrancy to the photography. These were wide landscape shots that just didn’t sit well on a two page spread so we displayed them in a series of gatefold sections…a whopping 21 of them tipping out from both the left and right hand pages! DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME!

Ex Why Zed makes self publishing a truly pleasurable experience!
Brilliant communication from start to finish. Mike had endless patience for the many questions we asked. The guides provided were easy to follow and super helpful (the video guides are a must watch too). Our order of hardback illustrated children's books was delivered expertly packaged and on time. As for the finished product itself - stunning - a real joy to finally hold, beautifully made and perfectly printed! We couldn't have asked for more. Well, we did - we instantly placed an order for paperback children's colouring books too, which we are equally as happy with. Look forward to working with Ex Why Zed again in the future.
