Enough with Letterpress

So many Letterpress postings. Work in other classes has been slow, or just a lot of reading an research.

In Design Rebels we had to research a socially conscious design firm, write 500 words, and design those words into a piece.

My firm was Quilted, they do web development, but they do it for awesome clients and do a lot of pro-bono work!

I designed my "paper" into a zine, something cheap and accessible to the masses.
It was my first dive into the world of zines and a good start.
If you want a copy let me know!

NY and Hatch

Well, the NY AIGA trip is all set.
Here is the final rundown of studios
Worldstudio
Chopping Block
Trollback & Co.
AIGA National Design Center
Chermayeff and Geismar
Pushpin Studios
Milton Glaser

Our group will be split up for Glaser/Pushpin.
I'll be going to Pushpin and I'm stoked.
Seymour has been emailing me which still feels crazy.




On another note.
We recieved our woodbocks from Hatch Show Print.
My poet came in and picked out the one that inspired her which is this one.



(excuse the picture quality)

We are collaborating with poets to make a publication that will be available to buy.
Ours will be dedicated to Hatch so this is why it is featuring their blocks.

I did some experiments with mine due to the fact it is much larger than the spread size
