We’re excited to have won two “Pinnacle” awards in last week’s Printing Industries of New England (PINE) yearly event. The categories and projects are:
Hardcover books: “Native Flora of Louisiana”

“Native Flora of Louisiana” also won the Best Use of Paper award. The judges wrote “The dust jacket and cover with the recessed work is so beautiful. It’s Smyth-sewn, case-bound and the silhouetting and the prep-work that went into this is really remarkable…. The book is over 400 pages and it’s executed flawlessly.”
We also won an Award of Recognition in the Product Catalog division and an Award of Merit in the Hardcover Book division.
