The calendars are now ready and I am so pleased by the result. The front cover designed by Joe White is full of details that sublime the letterpress printing process. We finalize it last week with Studio Pression and I visit him to print the glow in the dark front cover, that works even better than what we expect !

Hope you all have a great christmas time.

 

I love the Exploded Alphabet by Matt Stevens. I post about the first part last year, and was happy to see the complete alphabet. I ask Matt to design one sentense for the 2015 letterpress calendar, and the result is perfect for letterpress printing and for he first month of the year with this good resolution "Do it now, sometimes Later becomes Never".

When I had the idea of inviting designers to work with me on the 2015 edition of the letterpress calendar, Joe White is one ofthe first name I had in mind. I follow him since I discover his work about a year ago. Freelance designer from UK, Joe is very productive and multi-talented : typography, ornements, logo... I was very pleased by his interpretation of the sentences I ask him to illustrate. I also want him to design the front cover of the calendar, and he brings the idea of the sun as it is the year of light... and it gaves me the idea of doing a glow in the dark edition !

 

Talking about the calendar, thanks a lot for the pre-orders, which have been sent on december 12th ! The painted edges edition is now sold out, so you have the choice between the glow in the dark (with painted edges) edition or the normal edition. The calendar has been featured on behance and published on fubiz !

 

As I already post Joe White work 2 times, so I put all the images in one page of the excellence section !
