I already shown pictures of my travels here, but I thought as the Nice to meet you articles, they need a name... as I really invit you to shops and places I liked in a city, I thought Follow me in was a good name... I am currently in Paris for a week, so next article will be on the magic city, but for now I want to came back on the 2 days we spent in Lyon (the 2nd biggest city of France) some weeks ago.

 

Talking about Paris, if you want to met me, we do a press presentation party of the Niépi magazine at Artazart, the great design book store on the Quai de Valmy, this tuesday may 6th from 4 to 9 pm... Come to have a gluten free beer and talk about creativity !

 

 

Back to Lyon... to be precise in Villeurbanne, just at 10' from Lyon, were took place the "Les Puces du Canal"... It is there that I found the silkscreen posters and metal letters I recently put in the shop... But I have seen so much more amazing vintage things !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can also found in Lyon a museum of Print... It is of course, amazing to visit it for the designer that I am ! You can see very old printing machines, metal types, lytography stones ... everything except wood type ! Why ? The exhibition ends with the first Adobe packaging and Macintosh Classic !

When I discover J Kristobans poster with this brillant Think wisdom words, I contact him right away as I thought it would be a great wall sticker, something you need to remind yourself everyday ! He was enthusiastic about the idea, so added to the poster you can buy on his shop, you can also buy the wall sticker version in 2 sizes in the shop here (and as all the wall sticker, you can choose the color).

 

And, I propose you all the wall sticker at -20% for the next 10 days... What else !

 

 

Some picture of the "making of" of the poster...

 

 

 

 

Wall sticker available in the shop / Poster at J Kristobans Etsy shop
