Cambridge Imprint Slim Exercise Books are modelled on old-fashioned school exercise books.
They have covers of heavy, 170 gsm patterned paper, without any text or logo, and inside there are forty pages of plain 90gsm ivory paper.
Each book measures 6.7" x 8.4".
They are a perfect size for a small project: for writing a story or keeping a diary.
The slimness of the book makes finishing it completely an achievable goal!
About Cambridge Imprint
Cambridge Imprint make patterned paper, stationery and homeware with a sophisticated palette and a distinctively English sensibility. Their papers are printed in clear, intense, beautiful colours, and draw on a range of influences from Bloomsbury and the Arts and Crafts movement to mid-century modernism. Their signature simplicity and directness of mark is paired with meticulous attention to quality of colour and detail.
Cambridge Imprint seeks to create an authentic product, minimising or eliminating the dead hand of the camera and the computer from the design and manufacturing process. Hand-drawing, hand-making and other pre-industrial, pre-digital design processes create a livelier texture, a more living result.
The spot-colour lithographic printing they use to make the paper sets a limit on the complexity of the images and the number of colours that they can use: constraints that they find spur their creativity!
