When we design a book, every part of the story is an opportunity to create something a little interesting. Positioning of chapter headings, page numbers, justified or non-justified text... there's so many ways to make your words come to life on the page.

Are you ready to see your story turned into a book? Talk to us about it!

For small quantities, hardcover binding is a really great option for your book, and there are lots of ways to add a special touch to make it unique.

This was a lovely project to work on at the end of 2024.

It was extra special being able to design this collection of short diary entries into a format that will stand the test of time. Bound by artisan bookbinder Louise at The Binding Studio, we are in love with how these books came out.

Have a look at a couple of shots of the binding process... each book takes a lot of careful and expert handling!

This book was years in the making, and is extremely special!

Malama is a close friend of my late father. She was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease in 2013. While her mind is sharp, Malama has lost the use of her voice and motor control and therefore is unable to form words for herself. What makes this book a truly amazing feat, is that it is written in Malama's words, via a labourious process where my father would use an alphabet chart with whatever cues Malama was able to give him to spell, guess and confirm what she wanted to say. Needless to say, this took many, many sessions, over many years.

Living Narratives did the easy part: turning their years of work into a book that the family now have to treasure for generations to come.

We love books here, and really, what can be better than curling up with a good book on a cold day?

Even better when that book has been written by someone you know, someone close to you, whose story is interlinked with your own. What will you learn about your loved one? What will you learn about yourself?

At Living Narratives, we help you turn your story into a book that will survive for future generations to benefit from. Never underestimate the impact your unique shared experience could have!
