21 St James’s Square: A legacy
Front cover with bronze foil and white emboss.
A 160 page Swiss bound coffee table book designed for Columbia Threadneedle Investments to support the leasing campaign of 21 St James’s Square. Interior photography by Rory Gardiner and portraits by Mark Manzi, the book also features interviews with business owners and royal purveyors who embodied the spirit of St. James’s, among them Jermyn Street perfumers Floris, cheesemongers Paxton & Whitfield and wine merchant Berry Bros & Rudd.
The typography pairs two branches of the SangBleu superfamily by Swiss Typefaces, the seriffed SangBleu Kingdom and the largely serifless SangBleu Sunrise. The 21 St James’s Square logo is set in Gill Sans.
