    Looking for a really nice recycled paper texture for a brochure last week and again today toward another print presentation project to create a destinct sketch style, I resorted to creating my own with PS.

    The good thing about making ones own textures is that by saving the PSD file one has a valuable resource for the future when any other similar style of paper is required and layer blending alternatives can yield a multitude of results.

    The texture here shown with the style developed from the second print / presentation project.

    The zip contains a lower res 2048x2048 pixel version. Hope you can use it!

                                Hi Richard

                                Thanks, your sublime use of styles always impresses me. I think I may have found a good font to go with this style.

                                    The guidelines are for a mixed use business park which being developed by a First Nations group, so it's both about branding the new development, and setting the architectural style, and human environment for the park. It's my feeling that we need to have a "look" to the guidelines themselves which set the tone for this. Yours is a great example, because when I look at it I see quality. Since this document is in most cases the first thing people see, it conveys that right from the start.

                                      Dale I understand what you are suggesting there!

                                      I read an article recently suggesting that packaging design had the highest return on investment of any aspect in a product, it is the only experience of a product that 100% of prospectives may experience.

                                      The same could be suggested in your case, the document being the first of contact with the development can like your suggesting have a major effect to make or break in a way.

                                      I would suggest a book for you, not such on the design of such but so good on all aspects of branding and I would have to say that branding extends way past a corporate image, informative! Designing Brand Identity - Alina Wheeler.

Layers and all!

                                      Hopefully we get to see what develops from your work there mate!

                                        Thanks Richard, I will investigate both the book and your workflow suggestions. Appreciate your help.
                                        I hope to post the outcome (if the client and my boss agree).
