Archival Housing For Books, Works On Paper and Objects

Protective boxes and enclosures are essential for the long-term care of books, works on paper, and three-dimensional objects. We design and fabricate custom, archival-quality housings that provide physical protection, tailored to the specific needs of each item, from single item to large editions.

Each enclosure is made using conservation-grade, acid-free, and lignin-free materials, selected for their durability, stability, and compatibility with the object they are intended to protect. Whether the goal is long-term storage, safe transport, or refined presentation, every structure is built with careful attention to both function and craftsmanship.

I offer a range of enclosure styles, including clamshell (drop-spine) boxes, phase boxes, portfolios, wrappers, folders, and custom-fitted housings for irregular or complex objects. These enclosures help mitigate common risks such as light exposure, dust, handling damage, and environmental fluctuations. For fragile or valuable items, they can be an essential part of a broader preservation strategy.
