CASE STUDY
MARLOW ROPES
Produce technical illustrations and instructions for customers to refer to when splicing and knotting Marlow’s specialist sailing ropes. Bound into an A5 booklet
Marlow Ropes are a UK company and leading manufacturers of ropes used in sailing, and many industries
This was a complex task. Videos were studied, alongside existing drawings, the client’s hand drawn instructions, whilst taking full notes. Every type of rope demands a different technique when splicing. We explored different ways to present the information and a variety of production methods for manufacturing the booklet.
A clear, modern branded, A5 booklet was produced that the client sells at trade shows and online. It is also used as an educational tool.
