Premium 20×20cm (200×200mm) square photo book in a hardcover format printed and bound in the UK using professional production methods and premium materials.

Finished with a gloss-laminated hard cover across the front, back and spine for durability and a high-quality feel.

Materials and construction

Hardcover photo books are produced using traditional endpaper case binding with gauze spine reinforcement, a construction method commonly used in well-made hardcover books to improve hinge performance, durability and how the book opens over time.

This is not a lay-flat binding method, but it helps the book lay flatter than simplified endpaper bindings.

• Cover: Gloss-laminated hardcover across the front, back and spine.
• Inner pages: 170gsm recycled silk paper designed for vibrant photographic printing.
• Binding: Traditional four-page endpapers with gauze spine reinforcement on hardcover photo books.
• Page count: Starts at 20 pages and can be extended up to 200 pages.
• Additional spreads: Additional square spreads are charged at £0.35 per spread.
