Couture Books

I have found a wonderful bookmaker to print my custom designed albums - Couture Book. Their mission is to create luxurious, unique, handmade coffee-table books. They apply the highest standards of integrity, creativity, quality, and innovation to create stunning books. Combining old-world binding techniques with the latest technology in printing they create one of a kind, heirloom books. The books are all handmade using the most beautiful fabrics and papers from around the world and bound using French silk. As such, the books take about 4-5 weeks to put together. They are priced with fewer images per page, in order to highlight the beauty of the images and the books themselves, so these books will be designed with an average of one to two photos per page. There are 31 different styles to choose from and can be designed in 8x8, 8x10, 10x10 or 10x13.
Giving back is an integral part of the company. A portion of each Couture Book will go to a charity through their “Build a Better World” programme. They work with nine different charities including the World Wildlife Fund, Habitat for Humanity and Room to Read. They believe in more than just the creation of beautiful books; they are committed to the community and to the planet. All books are printed on paper with at least 50% recycled content and are shipped with recyclable packaging and the Earth Collection books are printed on 100% recycled paper powered by wind energy. Here are a few of the books I have done - they are just divine and I am so pleased with the results.
