      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.

                                      Great source, thanks

                                      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.

                                        Mate I can give you one quick but huge tip as you commence this project and as I been doing a few catalogue for home builders of late the saving grace has been the discovery that PDF's generated from LO intergrate seemlessly when dropped into Indesign! 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).
