Marian Bantjes is a designer, typographer, writer and illustrator working internationally from her base on a small island off the west coast of Canada.
The Creative Review cover ties in with a November profile piece on Marian Bantjes and the design responds to a request to envision her ideal studio.
The illustrated cover has been printed by St Ives on a stock called Rives Tweed 350gsm, supplied by Antalis McNaughton creative papers. The stock is uncoated and has a textured feel. A Cellofoil silver foil was applied by Celloglas across the Creative Review logo and large sections of the design. A Textured foil was applied inside square areas, matching the design supplied.
Janice Hoyes-Thompson Group Production Manager at Creative Review commented: “The cover depicts a dream studio space, the patterns used almost make the cover look like a material, with the stock giving the cover a fantastic textured feel. The silver foil applied by Celloglas suits the design perfectly and it really sets it off.”
Steve Middleton, Celloglas sales director commented: “The cover was very interesting to work with and a fantastic example of the wonderful results that can be produced using foil.”
