This week, we're bringing you a super-fun idea that can be spun into many different creative concepts. This brochure for Bell Canada was designed to highlight the benefits of the company's Bell Fibe TV service. It chose a four-panel accordion fold that uses a series of diecuts that are centered and stacked at the top of the brochure.
The phone, tablet, laptop and TV screens increase in size and create a layered, 3-D effect — and each screen is playing a different show to cover a broad scope of programming interests. Great idea!
