Layout design
Layout design is work you usually do not notice when it is done well. Careful typography, consistent margins, a clear information hierarchy and a logical rhythm to the content.
We lay out publications that are comfortable to read and properly prepared for print or digital use.
What you get with this service
Who this solution suits best
Companies publishing catalogues or reports. Publishers. Organisations producing reference publications. Anyone with a lot of text that needs a clear structure.
From the first step to the final result
We receive the copy and photography and agree the format and scope.
We create the grid, the typography and a few sample pages.
We lay out the whole publication to the approved system.
We make the agreed revisions and prepare the final files.
What is worth knowing before you start
Layout work does not include copy-editing as standard. If needed, proofreading or editing can be arranged separately.
Copy is easiest to supply in Word or Google Docs, and photographs at original quality. Images intended for print must be at a resolution suited to the final format.
If the project allows, we can build an editable template for your team. More complex publications are usually easier to maintain in professional layout software.
