Custom Books

Ah, the joy of something made to your specifications!

Sure, there’s a place for the mass produced.

However, when you decide on a custom bound book, you choose the style, materials, colors and typefaces.

The OrtBindery encourages your input for the binding of your journal, sketchbook, recipe book, thesis, guest book, wedding book, family history, notes for world domination plans or children’s drawings. Want a book to look like a melted ice-cream, or box of cigars ? Done…

Student Projects and Portfolios

The OrtBindery binds all shapes, sizes & styles.

A3, 4 & 5, landscape & portrait, or custom sizes ? Yep..

Section sew or flat sheets ? Oh, yes..

You can bind your book in cloth, paper, leather, cork, timber, acrylic, mesh, metal, canvas, fake grass, carbon fibre- you get the idea; animal, vegetable or mineral? Ok

Portfolios can use a Chicago-screw or ring binder metal if you want to change the content, or be permanently bound.
