Custom Portfolio, Made in Portland

Design Portfolio for Creative Agency

We love working with designers and other creative people: they often know what they want, and their finished products tend to come out even better than we first imagined. Take this post bound portfolio for Magmatic NW. They wanted a book they could take with them to show potential clients. They needed it to be large enough to showcase the work, have screwposts so pages could be added and changed easily, and to fit with their aesthetic:

They were pleased with the result, and so were we. We're planning to add a line of made-to-order portfolios to our site in early 2013. Until then, check out this custom graphic design portfolio,  custom made clamshell boxes to hold various portfolios, and a few other presentation pieces for architects, photographers and designers.

Custom Architecture Portfolio

Needing a portfolio for an upcoming interview, a recent architecture grad asked us to build this book around his work. We're planning to add custom portfolios to our product line in the coming months. See what you think!

Custom Graphic Design Portfolio

Design Portfolio for Portland Designer

We recently bound this incredible graphic design portfolio for local designer Kelly Kerwick. We bound archival printed pages {printed by our friends at Pushdot Studio} with a debossed cover {by Grossenbacher Bros.} into a coptic-bound book complete with clamshell box. The results of all that collaboration are magnificent. Kelly is pleased and so are we. {See her photos of this portfolio.}

Handmade Portfolios

Portfolios for designers, architects, and photographers

Our online store is currently centered around photo albums, but a lot of our work involves making hand-bound portfolios. We love any opportunity to make books and boxes with content. Here are photos of a few recent portfolio projects:

An grad school applicant had us make these portfolios for him to send to top-choice architecture schools. They will definitely make his work stand out. Good luck, Josiah!

A clamshell box for oversize prints works great for the amazing work of Toni Greaves:

Graphic designer Kortni Bottini uses these leave-behind mini portfolios when she meets with agencies interested in her freelance work:
