Two-Way Tapering Waterfall Accordion Brochure - 60-Second Fold of the Week
This week's solution is a super-stylish idea for a marketing brochure. From our friends at Hederman Brothers in Ridgeland, Mississippi, for client Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company, this golf event invitation utilizes a bidirectional taper on an extra-long seven-panel Accordion fold. The result is a stepped centered format with a waterfall cascade of panels, which creates a self-standing, sculptural effect when opened. We think you're really going to like this dynamic brochure solution.
