The Booker Prize Foundation, renowned for awarding the prestigious Booker Prize since 1969, sought a high-quality, durable bag to represent their esteemed literary award. The Booker Prize is the leading literary award in the English-speaking world, celebrating outstanding fiction and significantly impacting the literary community by bringing recognition, reward, and readership to exceptional works.
Project Overview:
Book bag chosen for this project, the Booker Prize Foundation selected a robust, heavyweight black canvas bag. The bag’s design is both practical and stylish, featuring a square shape and shoulder-length heavy cotton webbing straps for comfortable carrying. The bag is screen printed in white on both sides, ensuring the Booker Prize branding is prominently displayed.
