Just before the holiday I gave myself the challenge to design the 2 volumes of the THREE ebooks which present what has been published on this blog from july to december 2013. And I go even further, doing a third eBook only about identity with 100 selected projects ! This eBook is only available by donation, to support this blog ! 
 

one hundred identity : name your price !

ebooks-mrcup-2-02
Last year, I propose you to make donation to support the blog and get the 113/577 ebook which present "the best of 2012" (now available here). I can not do that this year as what is present on the blog is now available in the THREE eBooks. So I guess identity was the best option ! I select not less than 100 projects, published here since 2011 !

Why do I ask for support ?

When I started graphic-exchange in 2006, my goal was to "classify" my inspiration and share it with others. With 2 millions visists in 2013 (THANKS !), this blog became a big part of my life and change my way to do my work. I spend about 2-3 hours per day on average to find subjects look "Submissions" respond to emails...

 

On the other hand. I hear often "I use your site in my design school, our teacher was using it as reference" or "I work with many agencies in London and all look at your site". This blog generates contacts, and therefore buisness offers for those who are published. And I am really please with that, inspiring people and making things happening is so rewarding.

 

But I want to talk about a product, a shop, or anything just because I like it and I want to share it with you, not because it is part of a communications plan. That's the reason why there are no advertising on this blog. Of course, the blog helps me to sell products I design, as well as being found by clients, but I just want to dedicate as much time as possible to it.

 

I therefore propose to be the sponsors of this project, you, who are a part of it. Just like if you pay for you design magazine... Anything you can give is helpfull and show some respect. Thank you.

The Letterpress calendar : month by month

posted in Mr CUP News | Print  at 12.45 PM from Home ! Maruéjols Les Gardons (near Alès / Nîmes / Uzès) / France listening Christmas songs !
Over the past 12 days, I publish on facebook and tweeter a page of the letterpress calendar every day, with the illustration I used for the design. I try to use each media for its particularity... Not always easy as it is really time consuming ! Here comes each month of the calendar, shoot with a nice morning light on my macbook which gave nice vision of the relief of letterpress printing !

Letterpress calendars update and special offer

posted in Mr CUP News | Print  at 11.00 PM from Home ! Maruéjols Les Gardons (near Alès / Nîmes / Uzès) / France
I figure out I did not update about the letterpress calendars here since I get them ! Too much social media ! If you want one, I made a special offer at 33€ instead of 39€ until christmas... The next project is on its way, and I need a lot of space for it... To give you a clue, the Imaginary moments posters are now sold out !

I am surrounded by vintage objects and type related items... this is my passion, my way of life, and I am happy to share it with you... Being in Bali doing the wood letters with local craftmen, going to Spain to met the printer for the letterpress calendar, last week end going to Bordeaux to visit Poa Plume... this is what I like, this is my engine.
 
I used go to fleamarket but I saw a lot of things without buying them. Now I have a purpose going there and buying these amazing items to gave them a new life... Just want to say thanks for people who buy items here, because everytime you do, it is more fluel in my engine ! I put a lot of new items in the found section, each one is unique and will tell you it's own story...
 
This is the perfect exemple. I have this for years, it is an old coffee machine, but the top part is missing ! But it is so beautifull, I want it to decorate ! I found a new one last time so you can now have one too...
