P/R/D - Publication?

This is the sort of look I'm after, quickly mocked up in Photoshop... two silver screws to bind the content together and a blind debossed logo in the centre. To the right I have added '2011 - Present / Selected work' but I am not too sure whether this is necessary. However, I think due to time and other restraints, I don't think I will be able to get the logo debossed so I will probably go for the digital print option.

Now I just need to figure out how to create a hinge without using buckram as I really want to showcase the grey board (or wood if I intend to use that). I was talking to Sarah and she partially covered a book she created for the YCN brief in the material (only down the spine / hinge part) and only slightly covering the main cover so maybe I can try this?

Some initial formats. I think I will go for the dimensions specified by blurb (180mm x 180mm) as this is eventually how my Woodside will print their publications - due to ease and cost. However, for this project, I intend to create a one-off piece using the aforementioned specifications.

I bought some nickel and brass binding screws of varying lengths to see which would be the most effective. I also bought some standard machine screws which I think might work better as I can control the size of the publication.
