Lovely new friends and newlyweds, Phil & Susi, asked us to create a formal, custom bound slam book (inspired by The Proust Questionnaire) for their Chicago nuptials (click images to view full-size).
After the lovely couple penned the queries, we designed two different double-page spreads (which included special spaces for drawings, and a Polaroid photo of the guest, to be attached with photo corners). After the pages of the book were hand sewn in six signatures, we padded the hard case and covered it in antique linen that had been foil-stamped in distressed forest green type.
As a final adornment, we adhered an antique sterling silver brooch, from the 1930s, to the bottom corner of the book, as our special gift to the sweet couple.
