This is the Terra poster designed  by Kevin Cantrell ! You may recognize it as it was used on the front cover of the Walter magazine 1, printed in varnish on black mat paper. I am so happy Kevin design this year edition of the letterpress calendar. Some copies of the poster are available with the rewards on the Kickstarter !  

 

I will let him present the TERRA project : it is inspired by map insurance lettering. The text is taken from the first few verses in genesis on the creation, suggesting the infinite possibilities to create using gruppo cordenons paper. The negative space around terra creates a circle further expressing the concept of earth. Terra is currently being printed in 14 versions: wood laser etching, as well as copper foil, green foil, and brown foil on various papers.

 

Yes, you well read, 14 versions ! Here come the wood one and variations. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is this time of the year ! The Kickstarter campaign of the 2017 letterpress calendar just starts with special early bird prices this year!

 

 

The front cover of the Deluxe edition will be laser engraved on wood. Each cover will be engraved one by one ! The normal edition cover will be printed on white paper with 2 colors. This year is designed by Kevin Cantrell !

 

 

The calendar will be composed of 13 20x14 cm cards printed on 700g colorplan papers : 6 light colors papers with black printing / 6 dark colors papers with light printing.

 

 

This year edition will feature unique designs by Matt Stevens, Jef Millotte, Scott Biersack, Tom Ludd, Renaud Orange, Tomasz Biernat, Joseph Alessio, Salih Kucukaga and Eric Kass. They are currently working on the design and they will be shown as soon as possible during the campaign!

 

As last year, the printing plates of the front cover are part of the campaign reward, and only one is available. Early bird prices are limited, as a good start is always important on Kickstarter.

To avoid last year problems, we are almost 1 month in advance compared to 2016 ! The printing will start as soon as the project is funded to be sure everything is ready early December and sent before December 10th to arrive in time for the Christmas season.
