If you want to impress your clients and their children and their children’s children, give them company brochure designs that pack a punch,
Sure, we should make our websites pretty and our social networks active and fun but if you want to impress the people who’re the most likely ones to transact business with you, then don’t scrimp on the company brochures.

#1 SPENCER’S CROSSING BROCHURE
Lennar’s new “Spencer’s Crossing” community brochures got a touch of old school, making the brochure a game that anyone can play. It’s more than a gimmick, it is consistent with their collateral that appeals to the youthful nature of the product and area.

#2 FRAGRANZE DI BELLEZZA FOLD AND CUT BROCHURE DESIGN
Some printing shops offer unique folds and cuts for brochure design. If you want your brochure to really stand out, try a completely different style. You might need help from a printer to achieve this type of brochure but you can still design the visuals with Visme.
Keep in mind that these specialty styles are much more expensive than regular tri-fold. If what you are looking for is affordability, stick to the standard brochure design and keep these in mind for when your business is much bigger and super successful.

#5 4 BRIDGES ART FESTIVAL DIE CUT Z-FOLD BROCHURE
4 Bridges Art Festival Patron Brochure 2007. This piece was designed before the commissioned art piece was completed, so we used images of the artist’s collage collection and a die cut pattern of the festival’s logo (originally designed by Ben Horner).

Each of the three brochures is contained within an iron-cross folder which opens to reveal details of intricate beading and patterns from Cave’s pieces. The details are printed with a one color spot halftone in neutral gray, to accentuate the vividness of the colors in his textile work.

#17 ALTUS POP-OUT BROCHURE DESIGN
With every condo development offering either a better lifestyle or your
dream home it is important that Altus communicate on a more personal
level.
The concept focuses on putting the viewer in the position to imagine their
perfect home with no images to cloud the potential buyers mind. Instead
this brochure features pop-ups to enforce that living at Altus puts you above
everything.
The combination of textured paper, pop-ups and horizontal
lists of various building and neighbourhood amenities lead to a brochure
that genuinely display how unique Altus is.

#18 SWIM COMIC CON BOOTH & CUTOUT BROCHURE DESIGN
A corresponding brochure was also designed, which contained information about all Adult Swim activities at the Con.

#19 CAECV PAPER BAG BROCHURE DESIGN
A brochure in a paper bag. In order to communicate the extensive list of certified companies in the Valencian Community for the European market, they need a brochure that facilitates the classification by sectors and that at the same time stands out at fairs.
The concept is based on the consumption of organic products, a paper bag containing various foods. These in turn act as separators to classify companies in their corresponding sector.

#20 VISIT ASUTRALIA DIE BROCHURE DESIGN
Brochure Die – For those looking for inspiration to make a design with a swage, die or touch-up, I found 20 creative brochure examples.
Many of us put aside making a brochure or a cutout design, because we think it will be very expensive to produce and that is true. In some other cases it depends on the type of trim, it is not so expensive and completely changes the design.

#21 MODEL FESTIVAL PYRAMID POP-UP BROCHURE
The Model Festival in Hungary celebrates the relationship between architecture and man and helps deepen our understanding of the role cultural infrastructures plays in our society.
In promoting the event, the pyramid, known as the most stable structure in architecture, is aptly incorporated in the brochure design. The minimalist layout draws attention to the text structured like pyramids against a plain white background.
However, the brochure comes to life once turned into a pop-up. The person must cut along the broken lines on the material to transform the one-dimensional pyramids into their fully fledged forms.
The result is an attractive and interactive brochure that informs and engages people to its content.
Perfect for advertising an event or promo, this brochure design perhaps is the most difficult to pull off, but at the same time will yield the most response from people.

#22 TIME MACHINE BROCHURE
The Utah Valley University sent out these unique brochures to high school juniors in hopes of luring them in to the campus after graduation.
The brochure design follows the concept of a retro time machine, complete with switches and meters on the outside pages. Upon opening the brochure, a big wheel is located on the right side and contains the things that graduates must do to apply to the University.
Although it is more common for schools and universities to hand over professional and informative brochures about their programs, UVU takes a different, if not more potent route by tapping to their creative sensibilities and calling out the attention of students with something fresh and innovative.
Businesses appeasing to the younger market should take cue from this example and come up with contemporary concepts that they can relate to.
