Very nice work here.

I see the work of Deep includes some quality work for Brewin Dolphin. Unlike a lot of designers today, it is evident that their printed matter is produced on some quality paper and cards. Many ‘cheap’ printers are often only offering standard papers, so it’s good to see some designers, at least, take note and dictate what print-design is all about.

Andrew,
I agree paper selection is definitely part of the design process. I love personally love picking some great stocks and using cool print tricks like blind embosses and spot inks. Unfortunately not every project is right for it, nor is every client.

I love Deep’s portfolio I think their work is truly stunning. I also like how the portfolio images fill the screen rather than having a tiny thumbnail to showcase their work (we are considering a web re-design so this is definitely noted!).
