Here are some images of a portfolio box I made recently for Start Today Illustrations (aka Chloe Cook). The brief was fairly simple – she required a portfolio box to showcase her illustration work. The box needed to be durable and simple so that it drew attention to the work inside rather than the box itself. I used a hard-wearing buckram bookcloth which has a coated surface so any marks can simply be removed with a damp cloth. The inside is lined with a plain white bookcloth.
Chloe also needed the box to be a specific size and this was easy to accommodate due to the nature of making everything from scratch. I started with the internal measurements that she provided and built the box out from that.
