Description

sample book

[0001] The present disclosure relates to sample books.

[0002] BACKGROUND ART Sample books having sample pages on which a plurality of small product samples of 100 m<2 > or less are pasted have been known (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] JP 2023-45259 A

[0004] However, in the past, even if a user looked at products in the sample book described above, before deciding which product to actually purchase, they had to order a large product sample (actual sample) of 200 m2 or more, which was a double hassle.

[0005] Furthermore, in the past, users were unable to simultaneously view photos of construction examples and actual samples in a single sample book, which meant it took a long time for users to make a decision on a product.

[0006] In addition, in order to propose coordination ideas, those proposing interior coordination (salespeople, construction companies, home builders, etc.) had to create their own coordination materials for each user, with product samples such as wallpaper attached, which created a problem of a high workload.

[0007] Therefore, the present disclosure has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a sample book that makes it easy to consider interior coordination in one volume.

[0008] Another object of the present disclosure is to enable interior coordination proposers (salespeople, construction companies, house manufacturers, etc.) to propose coordination ideas using only a sample book, thereby reducing the burden of creating coordination materials.

[0009] A first feature of the present disclosure is summarized as a sample book comprising: a first sample book including a plurality of first sample pages each having a first product sample; and a second sample book including a plurality of second sample pages each having a second product sample; the first sample book and the second sample book are integrated; the second sample page includes at least one of a photograph and an image of an interior space including the second product sample; the horizontal length of the first product sample is 60% or more of the horizontal length of the first sample page; the vertical length of the first product sample is 60% or more of the vertical length of the first sample page; the area on which the at least one of the photograph and the image of the interior space is pasted occupies an area of ​​the second sample page that is 40% or more; the area on which the second product sample is pasted occupies an area of ​​the second sample page that is 35% or less; and the type of the first product sample and the type of the second product sample match.

[0010] A second feature of the present disclosure is a sample book comprising: a first sample book including a plurality of first sample pages each having a first product sample; and a second sample book having a plurality of second sample pages each having a second product sample; the first sample book and the second sample book are integrated; the horizontal length of the first product sample is 60% or more of the horizontal length of the first sample page; the vertical length of the first product sample is 60% or more of the vertical length of the first sample page; and the area where the second product sample is attached occupies 35% or less of the area of ​​the second sample page.

[0011] According to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a sample book in which photographs of construction examples and actual samples can be viewed simultaneously in one volume.

[0012] Furthermore, according to the present disclosure, interior coordination proposers (salespeople, construction companies, house manufacturers, etc.) can propose coordination ideas using only a sample book, thereby reducing the burden of creating coordination materials.

[0015] (First embodiment) Hereinafter, a sample book 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 5. Figure 1 is a diagram showing an example of the appearance of the sample book 1 according to this embodiment, Figures 2 and 3 are diagrams showing examples of a first sample page 100 and a second sample page 200 in the sample book 1 according to this embodiment, Figure 4 is a diagram showing an example of a back page 100A of the first sample page 100 in the sample book 1 according to this embodiment, and Figure 5 is a diagram showing examples of the first sample page 100 and a third sample page 300 in the sample book 1 according to this embodiment.

[0016] As shown in FIG. 1, the sample book 1 according to this embodiment includes a first sample book 10 and a second sample book 20.

[0017] Specifically, in the sample book 1 according to this embodiment, a first sample book 10 and a second sample book 20 are integrated together.

[0018] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the first sample book 10 and the second sample book 20 may be integrated in such a way that the second sample page 200 is arranged as a page following the first sample page 100.

[0019] Alternatively, the first sample book 10 and the second sample book 20 may be integrated in such a way that the first sample page 100 is arranged as a page following the second sample page 200 .

[0020] Alternatively, the first sample book 10 and the second sample book 20 may be integrated together by enclosing the second sample book 20 in a bag or box attached to the back side of the back cover 6 of the sample book 1, for example.

[0021] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the first sample book 10 includes a plurality of first sample pages 100 having first product samples 110, and the second sample book 20 includes a plurality of second sample pages 200 having second product samples 210.

[0022] Here, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, the horizontal length of the first product sample 110 is 60% or more of the horizontal length of the first sample page 100, and the vertical length of the first product sample 110 is 60% or more of the vertical length of the first sample page 100.

[0023] From the standpoint of grasping the texture of the product, it is preferable that the horizontal length of the first product sample 110 is 80% or more of the horizontal length of the first sample page 100, and that the vertical length of the first product sample 110 is 80% or more of the vertical length of the first sample page 100.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 2, the first product sample 110 may be pasted over the entire first sample page 100, or the first product sample 110 may be bound into the first sample book 10.

[0025] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the second sample page 200 may also include at least one of a photograph and an image 220 of an interior space (construction example) including the second product sample 210 .

[0026] With this configuration, the user can compare at least one of the large first product sample 110 and the photograph and image 220 of the interior space using just one sample book, making it easier for the user to imagine the interior space.

[0027] 2 and 3, the area of ​​the second sample page 200 onto which at least one of the interior space photographs and images 220 is pasted occupies 40% or more (preferably 50% or more). This configuration makes it easier for the user to visualize the interior space and make a decision on the product.

[0028] For example, the horizontal length of at least one of the interior space photographs and images 220 may be within a range of 70% to 90% of the horizontal length of the second sample page 200, and the vertical length of at least one of the interior space photographs and images 220 may be within a range of 40% to 60% of the vertical length of the second sample page 200.

[0029] Alternatively, the horizontal length of at least one of the interior space photographs and images 220 may be within a range of 40% to 60% of the horizontal length of the second sample page 200, and the vertical length of at least one of the interior space photographs and images 220 may be within a range of 70% to 90% of the vertical length of the second sample page 200.

[0030] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the area of ​​the second sample page 200 to which each of the second product samples 210 is attached occupies 35% or less.

[0031] Here, a plurality of second product samples 210 may be attached to the second sample page 200. In such a case, the area of ​​the second sample page 200 to which each of the second product samples 210 is attached preferably occupies a proportion of the area within the range of 3% to 30%.

[0032] When multiple second product samples 210 of the same type are attached, the user can compare products with different patterns or colors. On the other hand, when multiple second product samples 210 of different types are attached, the user can easily imagine the interior space when each product is included.

[0033] For example, if the second product sample 210 is wallpaper for a side wall, the horizontal length of the second product sample 210 may be within a range of 30% to 70% of the horizontal length of the second sample page 200, and the vertical length of the second product sample 210 may be within a range of 30% to 70% of the vertical length of the second sample page 200.

[0034] Furthermore, when the second product sample 210 is a ceiling material, the horizontal length of the second product sample 210 may be within the range of 30% to 70% of the horizontal length of the second sample page 200, and the vertical length of the second product sample 210 may be within the range of 15% to 30% of the vertical length of the second sample page 200.

[0035] Furthermore, if the second product sample 210 is flooring or a curtain, the horizontal length of the second product sample 210 may be within the range of 20% to 50% of the horizontal length of the second sample page 200, and the vertical length of the second product sample 210 may be within the range of 15% to 30% of the vertical length of the second sample page 200.

[0036] Furthermore, if the second product sample 210 is a decorative sheet or film, the horizontal length of the second product sample 210 may be within a range of 30% to 70% of the horizontal length of the second sample page 200, and the vertical length of the second product sample 210 may be within a range of 30% to 70% of the vertical length of the second sample page 200. Furthermore, the horizontal length of the second product sample 210 may be within a range of 5% to 15% of the horizontal length of the second sample page 200, and the vertical length of the second product sample 210 may be within a range of 5% to 15% of the vertical length of the second sample page 200. This configuration allows the user to check different patterns and colors of the decorative sheet or film. In the case of a decorative sheet or film, the second product sample 210 may also include a color sample.

[0037] For example, the first product sample 110 and the second product sample 210 may be product samples such as decorative sheets, decorative films, flooring materials, tiles, carpets, cushion flooring, vinyl chloride sheets, wallpaper, ceiling materials, upholstery, cushions, multi-covers, rugs, curtains, roller blinds, blinds, etc. Furthermore, the product sample 110 and the product sample 210 may include plain product samples and patterned product samples.

[0038] The type of the first product sample 110 and the type of the second product sample 210 may or may not match. When the type of the first product sample 110 and the type of the second product sample 210 match, the user can get a sense of reality by looking at the large first product sample 110, and can grasp the texture of the product by touching the large first product sample 110.

[0039] Furthermore, multiple types of first product samples 110 may be attached to the first sample page 100 .

[0040] The first sample book 10 may include a page that does not have the first product sample 110 (a page other than the first sample page 100). Here, the first sample book 10 may include a page that has a product sample that is smaller than the first product sample 110.

[0041] Similarly, the second sample book 20 may also include pages that do not have second product samples 210 (pages other than the second sample pages 200).

[0042] 2 and 3, the second sample page 200 may be provided in a portion of the foldout page that protrudes beyond the fore edge 4 when the foldout page is in the opened state. Alternatively, the second sample page 200 may be provided in a portion of the foldout page that protrudes beyond the base 3 (see FIG. 4) or the head when the foldout page is in the opened state.

[0043] With this configuration, the user can compare the second sample page 200 and the first sample page 100 side by side, with the pages protruding beyond the fore edge 4 (or the bottom 3 or top).

[0044] As shown in FIG. 4, a symbol 150 relating to the first product sample 110 may be printed on the back page 100A of the first sample page 100.

[0045] In addition, if the first product sample 110 is not pasted over the entire first sample page 100, such symbol 150 may be written in the margin of the first sample page 100.

[0046] Similarly, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a second sample page 200 may include a symbol 150 associated with a second product sample 210 .

[0047] According to this configuration, the user can use the symbol 150 to search for the first product sample 110 and the second product sample 210 in association with each other.

[0048] The sample book 1 may also include a third sample page 300 having a sample 310. The third sample page 300 may be provided in a portion of the foldout page that protrudes beyond the bottom 3 and / or top when the foldout page is opened upward and / or downward.

[0049] For example, the sample 310 may be a construction material (baseboard, trim, frame, etc.), a decorative sheet, a decorative film, a flooring material, a wallpaper, a ceiling material, a curtain, a roller blind, a blind, a tile, etc. Furthermore, the sample 310 and the second product sample 210 may include a plain product sample or a patterned product sample.

[0050] Here, if the above-mentioned first product sample 110 and second product sample 210 are wallpaper, and sample 310 is a baseboard, the user can see the baseboard along with the wallpaper, making it easier to match colors and visualize the combination of wallpaper and baseboard.

[0051] Here, if the first product sample 110 and the second product sample 210 are wallpaper, and the sample 310 is flooring, the user can easily imagine how the wallpaper and flooring will be combined. The user can check various combinations of wallpaper and flooring by comparing the multiple third sample pages 300 that are opened upward and / or downward.

[0052] 2 and 3, the ratio of the width W2 of the second sample page 200 to the width W1 of the first sample page 100 may be in the range of 3:1 to 1:2. This configuration allows the user to easily view the first sample page 100 along with the second sample page 200, and as shown in FIG. 2, the first product sample 110, which is a large product sample, can be easily viewed next to the photograph and image 220 of the interior space.

[0053] 1, the height H2 of the first sample book 100 is at least 10 mm shorter, and preferably at least 15 mm shorter, than the height H1 of the front cover 5. This configuration makes it easier to pull out the first sample book 10 by hooking a finger or the like.

[0054] 1, the height D2 of the first sample book is at least 5 mm shorter, preferably at least 12 mm shorter, than the height D1 of the front cover 5. This configuration makes it easier to open the second sample page 200.

[0055] As shown in Fig. 5, the first sample page 110 is provided with a heading 120 to make it easier to find the first sample page 100. Here, the length L of the heading 120 may be within a range of 6 mm to 8 mm. This configuration makes the characters written on the heading 120 easier to read and also makes the heading 120 less likely to fold. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 4, the back page 100A of the first sample page 100 may include information 120 regarding the functionality of the first product sample 110.

[0056] In addition, if the first product sample 110 is not pasted over the entire first sample page 100, the symbol 150 of the first product sample 110 and information 120 regarding its functionality may be written in the margins of the first sample page 100.

[0057] In addition, a first product sample 110 may also be attached to the back page 100A of the first sample page 100.

[0058] According to the sample book 1 of this embodiment, the time and effort required to separately order a sample book with large product samples pasted and a sample book with small product samples pasted can be eliminated, and photographs of construction examples and actual samples can be viewed at the same time in one book, making it easier to consider interior coordination.

[0059] Although the present invention has been described in detail using the above-described embodiments, it is clear to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein. The present invention can be implemented in modified and altered forms without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the claims. Therefore, the description in this specification is intended to be illustrative and explanatory and does not have any limiting meaning on the present invention.
