Christie’s – London
Selected books created for Christie’s – a global auction house specialising in the finest art, antiques and more.
Christie’s publish limited edition books to celebrate special high-profile works of art or pieces of antiquity. Each book is inspired by the artwork or object; research into the piece informs the design and materials used. The following are a small selection of the publications I have designed.
Masterworks of the Palais Stoclet
Celebrating the auction of a rare Austrian silver collection, this book showcased the distinctive pattern Josef Hoffmann (1870–1956) applied to all the items of cutlery.
The book is perfect bound with a 8pp cover of duplexed metallic silver book cloth and deep blue uncoated stock.
