NATIONAL PLAYING CARDS
Please to add the new National playing cards to the shop. They are designed by Harold Apples and again a masterpiece of printing by Studio on fire. No photo will show how amazing it is!
RHINE'S DICE
I also add some Rhine's Dice box set. Coming in a nice copper printed black box, each box includes 3 dices and instruction for trick ! Read a spectator’s mind using a pair of dice. Inspired by the tests performed in the 1930s by Dr. JB Rhine, Matt Mello has created a routine that will allow you to replicate psychic abilities.

What happens when you put a bunch of designers together in a city like Barcelona?
They have to do something together! I was invited by Adobe at Offf for the second year. Sebastien Spasic, known as AKUsepp on Instagram, starts shooting portraits of guests and speakers last year, as I show in this post. For this year, we want to push it further. We start with pictures with an object but after the first one, I think it would be even cooler if each of us personalizes the photo to show his work and style : pixel art, lettering, illustration... this is the result of the pictures done over 2 days!

I also was invited to share about the letterpress calendar and Walter magazine wiht Rufus Deuchler on Adobe live, a video you can see on youtube!
While I talk about OFFF, my friend Alessio Carone shoot some nice pictures, here comes a little selection, see more here.
Thanks again Adobe !

Tomorrow I will be back in Barcelona for my 3td Offf festival, the place to be for inspiration! Again this year I came under the invitation of Adobe, with a bunch of other designers and creatives! It starts tomorrow for us, as we have a lot of things to do in Barcelona before the opening of Offf on Thursday! I really want to see "in real" Vaughan Olivier, Kelli Anderson, Annie Atkins. Follow me on twitter, Instagram and facebook to share the experience and here come some pictures I took during last year edition!
This last portrait of me is by akusepp, check this last year post for more portraits !
Just before living to Barcelona, we just update the mr-cup.com page, one page to rule them all! After the new Shop and Studio/portfolio, I need a page to sum up all that I do on one page! Hope you like it! The blog is the next big thing, with larger images and so much more! The best way to follow is to subscribe to the newsletter here !

As a I had a lot of message asking why the playing cards are not in the new Mr Cup shop, I had decided to restock them. To make everything clear, I do not design these cards, they are made by different Theory 11 or Dan & Dave, and design by worldwide designers such as Kevin Cantrell who design this year letterpress calendar front cover, Joe White who designed the 2015 one, Chad Michael and Jeff Trish. The Citizens, Contraband, Nomad, Makers and Sons of liberty are now available at the mrcup-shop.com !
See more pictures of the new Makers and Sons of liberty in the full article.
