When Hotbath entrusted us with their latest catalogue, we knew this would be a project defined by scale, precision and collaboration.
Originally developed by the Dutch design team, we worked closely with them to inherit and consolidate a vast suite of files before adapting the brochure for the UK and Irish markets. This included a full translation into English, alongside numerous technical and layout refinements, working with Aqualla, Hotbath’s Northern Irish sister company.
At 456 pages, finished at 340 x 240mm with a 28mm spine, this is the largest brochure we have produced to date. The scale demanded careful structuring, consistency across hundreds of pages, and a meticulous approach to detail to ensure clarity and cohesion throughout.
Production was equally considered. An anti-scuff matt lamination protects the piece in use, while thread sewing ensures durability – essential for a publication of this size.
A mammoth undertaking, but one met with real satisfaction when the finished catalogues landed – a refined, physical result of months of work, brought together into a single piece.
