Identity Print
White foil on white paper gives this stationery a unique visual—something that was not easy to attain without proper communication with the printer. But once the feedback was received the production was smooth and the outcome just like the team at The Hideout wanted it.

Project Description
The Hideout is a studio of designers, developers and content makers based in the garden of England. We offer a full range of services and can help you from the very creation of an idea through to delivery and on-going support. So whether it’s a brand and a campaign roll out, or a website design and build, we can work with you to create it.It was important for us to show that print still plays an important part, even in this digital world. Real consideration was taken in choosing what finishes to use and we worked closely with our printer, identity, to get a final product we were all happy with. The stationery continues the styling and approach of the new Hideout rebrand. A clean and minimalistic look allows the print finishes and tactile nature of the stationery to come to the forefront while staying completely functional. The addition of the simple wooden texture is a nod to the studios surroundings and our “Crafted with purpose” messaging.
Production Lesson(s)
We wanted a subtle look for the foiled wooden pattern on the stationery. We opted to test a white and a clear foil. Surprisingly the clear foil gave a slight yellow tint once applied to the stock, something we didn't want, where as the white foil went on without a problem and looked clean and crisp. It pays to talk to your printer and use their knowledge to get the best outcome for your print. What you think it will look like is not always how it will come out, so their experience is invaluable.
