Quality
papers and specialty processes
Ikon
uses distinctive materials and specialty processes.
Our designer will work with you to choose the materials that best suit the design of
your work, and fit within your budget. With Ikon, your book will be one of
a kind.
Hard
or Soft Covers
Our award-winning bindery can
work with a variety of materials for hard or soft covers, including
leather, vinyl, cloth, papers and plastics. We will help you choose the
right look for your book.
Paper
Stocks
Subtle differences in color,
from warm creams to bright whites, can change the look of a finished book. Unusual colors and textures can add to an enjoyable reading
experience. Distinctive elements, such as transparencies, interior photo pages, and fly sheets can
add depth to a project.
Flaps,
Die-Cuts and Embossing
Soft-cover flaps give finished
books a rich and professional look, while providing space for
quotations and author notes so the cover can stay clean. Die-cuts and
embossing are often fitting to a particular design.
Varnishes
and UV Coats
Instead of low-quality cover-stock with
lamination that will eventually yellow and peel, UV coating adds a smooth
matte or satin finish for durability. Handled correctly, spot or gloss varnishes can add life to a cover
design.
