Bespoke book makers, Hurtwood Press, produce some of the world’s finest publications from the idyll of its Oxted HQ.

We had already designed Hurtwood's typographic tree logo, using wood block type from its workshop, so it made sense to bring this tree to life; by using birds as the main theme for the website. Various illustrators with a variety of styles were commissioned to produce Hurtwood's fine-feathered friends; each bird representing a different section of the site.

Choosing illustrators with very different styles enabled us to showcase the diverisity of the company’s portfolio.
We produced a print for the company moniker using wood block type found in Hurtwood’s extensive collection. Using a ‘T’ for the tree trunk was an opportunity we couldn’t let pass us by.
