The Burton Awards | Project Spotlight

The Burton Awards

The Burton Awards in Washington, DC is a national event held annually at the Library of Congress to recognize excellence in the legal profession. For the 2025 ceremony, the Heritage team supported the event’s visual identity through a sophisticated suite of printed materials that reflected the caliber of the program and the prominence of its venue.

Project Goals and Background

 

Having supported The Burton Awards in 2023 and 2024, Heritage was once again entrusted with producing high-quality printed pieces for the 2025 event. The goal was to deliver a cohesive collection of materials—timely, refined, and on brand—to elevate both the attendee experience and the overall presentation of the event.

After printing the body of the book, the paper spine will be milled to introduce an adhesive friendly surface. Glue is applied to the spine and the cover is pressed to the body forming the squared spine, lay-flat book. The book is trimmed to size and packaged for delivery.

Perfect binding has page count limitations, the body of the book can have from 48 to 180 pages, not including the cover and paper weight could vary the page counts.
