Paper stocks Heaven 42 and Corona Offset

Summary

A paper-stock specification page presenting two recommended stocks, a coated and an uncoated option, as side-by-side spec cards.

Visual description

Warm off-white (#F7F3EC) page with the "Appendix / Stocks and Finishes" header and the title "Paper stocks", page 201. Two large cards sit under captioned hairlines, each with a small-cap supplier label, a big two-line name, and rule-separated rows. The left card, a soft white panel labelled "GFSmith", reads "HEAVEN 42 / Soft Matte", recommended for programme and promoter materials, cover stock 200gsm, text stock 135gsm, with an available-weights list. The right card, outlined with a rounded border and labelled "Paper Back", reads "CORONA OFFSET", recommended for all branded stationery, business cards 500gsm, letterhead 120gsm, compliment slip 150gsm. Short grey rationale copy sits to the left of each card.

Key takeaway

Presenting each paper stock as a self-contained card, supplier, name, recommended use, and a weights table, turns dry production data into a scannable spec sheet. Differentiating the coated and uncoated options by card treatment (filled vs outlined) gives a subtle visual cue to their character.

Reuse notes

A clean reference for the paper-stocks or materials page of a print-focused guideline or production appendix. The card-with-table pattern extends to any number of stocks and pairs with a following finishes page. Keep the supplier, use, and weights fields consistent across cards so the set reads as a single specification.
