YOH!
a brand new range launching at Harrogate Home and Gift

Following in the footsteps of our highly successful Close Knit range is YOH - that's yarn over hook for all you crochet fans out there!
Designed with rich, retro colours, the YOH range homes in on your nearest and dearest and greetings for their special day. The range includes Happy Birthday, Make a Wish, Birthday Snuggles, Birthday Boy, Birthday Girl, Nest, Mum, Dad, Gran, Grandad, 40th, 50th, 60th and 70th Birthdays. And seeing as Christmas gives all of us at open|box|design a warm fuzzy glow, we've also produced six crocheted snowflakes to celebrate the family event of the year - presenting vibrant, graphic snowflakes on a white textured stock they are sure to stand out on that mantlepiece.
Apologies from the open box elves - we've had the busiest six months in our history so our site has been neglected somewhat. Never fear because we will be updating soon.
However, we're here just to say that we've leaving... again. Alas, not for a round the world trip. Not even for a trip to Skegness. Instead we're off to Top Drawer in Earl's Court (15-17 January) closely followed by Spring Fair International at the NEC in Birmingham (5-9 February).
Come and see us. More importantly, you'll be the first to see a fantastic brand new range!
We love design. We really love design.
We believe in the impact that good design can have for companies and for people in general. In fact, we're the kind of people that like to see more of our clients and we're proud that many have been with us for years and years and over many projects. Some projects we do are serious, some not so. Some are very corporate, some are for children; but whatever we do we give our hearts as well as over fifteen years of experience to do the best we can. We can, and have, done it all, from corporate communications to books for children and from exhibition stands to database-driven websites and to brilliantly innovate print work.
We believe in what we do. We win awards for what we do. We've even been known to teach the next generation of graduate designers how to do well. So please take a look around, and if you like what we do, get in touch.
Hooray for Harrogate
countdown to sun and sales
It’s half show, half holiday (well, it may be the only one we get this year we’re so busy…!) – the openboxdesign team just LOVE Harrogate in July! It’s hard work, but it’s fun work, and this year we’re excited to be bringing more new ranges to Harrogate from our favourite spot of Stand F27 in the Greetings Card Hall.
The week promises to be full of reunions and introductions, as many of the UK’s most interesting independent retailers come to town, and, if previous years are anything to go by, they love our cards! We look forward to welcoming old friends and new on Stand F27. Please come and say hello. You can find our listing on the Harrogate Home and Gift website here.
