Philip K. Dick’s Selected Short Stories won the Literature category. "The cut-out of the slipcase hints at the world of Dick’s imagination," said the judges. "24 full- colour plates from specially commissioned artists and detail within the slipcase itself bear witness to a superlative level of attention to detail."
The Origins of Totalitarianism by Hannah Arendt won the Scholarly, Academic & Reference Book category. The judges called it: "A beautiful and striking book, the content is perfectly complemented by the weight, size and shear strength of the format and design. Flawless attention to detail in the finishing makes this a superb collector’s item."
Tom Walker, Publishing Director at Folio said: "We were bowled over by the reaction from the judges, what a thrill! It’s a testament to the brilliant team at Folio that even during those strange pandemic years we continued to innovate and stretch the possibilities of the printed book. The standard of creativity across the board was exceptional. We really are going through a golden period of book design, and to be at the forefront of that is a privilege."
Kate Grimwade, Production Director noted: "We are all absolutely delighted about Folio’s success. Folio is passionate about exploring dynamic and innovative ways to produce exquisite books. Winning these awards is a recognition of our continued commitment to, and passion for, design and production excellence."
