When you fall in love with typography…
September 10, 2007
people know that you’re either a designer or design aficionado (well, charitable people know that. Other people may wonder about you.) When you’re me, and you love typography, think letterpress is the best printing process out there, and appreciate found art, then you head over to Athenaeum Press immediately and buy one of the limited edition fine art letterpress prints from the Urban Typography Project for sale there. Boy, I love these. My dream is to have a set of 9, beautifully framed, hanging in my office. So far, I have one, but I’m working on it. Not only do I love the photos, but the print is deliciously tactile.
Add to this that the web site is cool, easily navigated and lovely to look at, and during my purchase I had the opportunity to deal directly with the artist, who is a really nice guy. Score, any way you look at it.
