The fourth in an on-going series of self-promotional materials for international design and consultancy firm IDEO, San Francisco’s Volume Inc. opts for a more utilitarian rubber band binding in lieu of previous editions’ box packaging. The case studies serve not only as leave-behinds for potential clients but also as a way for IDEO designers to celebrate recent accomplishments.

Project Description
IDEO Snapshots is an ongoing promotion showcasing the firm's recent projects. It serves internally to spread awareness of recent accomplishments and externally as a promotional leave-behind and presentation book.For this volume we eliminated the previous box packaging in favor of a utilitarian solution that is more in line with IDEO's ethos. We also designed tablet and mobile app versions of Snapshots so the series can be shared digitally and easily updated with new projects.
Production Lesson(s)
Two production challenges were with the chipboard and the rubber band printing. The varied thickness of individual chipboard pieces caused variation in the stamp impression. The goal was consistency, so we had to ensure close review of each board. The other challenge was printing the logotype on the band, so that the stretched state maintained the proportion and integrity of the mark.
