Starpointe Studio specializes in both printmaking (specifically relief print processed like wood engraving, woodcut, and letterpress) and book binding. The imagery and binding styles range from traditional to contemporary – always with attention to detail, quality, and sustainability.
Custom illustrations for books, fine art prints and more – Including bookplates, also known as Ex Libris (Latin for “from the books of”), is usually a small print or decorative label pasted into a book, often on the inside front cover, to indicate its owner.
Custom designed bindings and boxes provide a clean, efficient and functional presentation, reflecting quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that make each piece personal and professional. Custom Photo albums, photo boxes and books for writing, drawing, or painting can be designed and crafted to your specifications.
