Graphic Design & Illustration
OU Printing Services customers weren’t fully aware of the specialty finishes and creative production options available to them. I developed a coil-bound sample book that turned each capability into a distinct, tangible example of how it could be used.
I created visual concepts for the required samples, including raised and dimensional inks, foil, lamination, engraving, ADA signage, and contour cutting while maintaining the integrity of the university brand. I collaborated with my supervisor and the production team, preparing files for seven different printers and finishing machines.
Three prototypes helped gather feedback and refine the book. I also planned for samples to be easily replaced, removed, or added, making the book a flexible resource that can evolve over time. The finished book was distributed to campus department leaders and other customers, giving them a high-quality, hands-on introduction to OU Printing Services’ capabilities.
