Another format, another way of thinking
We are used to reading books, which are upright. So our thinking became „upright“. These days, our PC monitors are in 16:9 resolution, so our thinking is different – horizontal!
What does it mean, thinking upright? Here is a guess: If you read a piece of paper from the bottom up, thinking upright might stand for deep thinking. Exploring, investigating the reasons, being very analytic. But also being hierarchical and authoritorian.
"Thinking horizontal (or lateral)" means breaking old habits, striking a new path, thinking free!

The smal things
We like to refine the details, so we are alwas happy about customer feedback!
1. The sheets are numbered serially
The sheets are numbered serially, so you can refer from one book to another.
2. The books are micro-perforated
The perforation is barely visible and holds the sheet safe. Although most of the clients don't rip out the pages, we wanted to make it possible.
To make sure the sheets don't fall out unintentional, we made the perforation a little bit hard to rip out. It is best to seam the sheet at first!
So the compromise is like that – you can rip out the page if you like, but it's a little bit harder.
Are you wonderin about the dot...
…in the middle on the left side of the pages? The dot marks the middle of the page, so you know where to perforate the sheets.
4. A bag for business cards...
...to stick on is enclosed! So you can find the right place for it yourself. We recommend to place it on the double pockets – it won't stick on leather, bonded leather or the books permanently.
5. The double pocket sleeve
You can put the double pocket sleeve around the book, if you like. There are several possibilities!
6. Optimize the double pocket plastic folder.
Our solution for the plastic folder is a double pocket sleeve, processed with flexifastener. This way, you still have two bigger bags for A5.
