After not having a lot of luck with printing companies I have finally found one that I really like and that can make exactly what I want. After exchanging a few emails with Patrick from Fineprint I have decided on a final book design. I plan to have a cover exactly like the image below with a maximum of 20 pages and some translucent pages in-between with text and possible images on. I feel so relieved that this part of my project is finally sorted.
I decided to visit fineprint just to get a feel of the work they produce and I am so happy that I did, Patrick showed me how my book would of looked if I had gone with the material on the front cover. Having the fabric on the front cover meant I had to have the book staple bound which resulted in the book not being a hardback but almost like a magazine. This is defiantly not what I wanted I wanted a hardback book which resulted in me having to change my book completely I decided to change this to a matte back hardback cover that would have white text on the front. I also realised that I needed to change to layout of the book from portrait to landscape I was disappointed in this as I prefer the look of a portrait book than a landscape but most of my images were in landscape so I had to go with what would work best with my final imagery and I only had myself to blame as I should of made sure I photographers all my images in either landscape or portrait.
