I set up my press during Lockdown 1 purely as a bit of escapism to get myself away from my computer screen, where I worked on producing graphic design during the day. In my studio space I love to combine my two passions: typography and print. Rather then setting my designs in lead type (very time-consuming) I like to produce simple, bold and eye-catching designs and print from photopolymer plates. These plates allow to print with a heavier impression, which would quickly wear out lead foundry type.

My designs are inspired by the properties of the transparent inks that are used in letterpress. When overprinted or offset, the cyan, magenta and yellow inks create a vibrant spectrum of colours. Each card is hand-fed onto the press, one card at a time, so I like to keep to small limited runs. All my products will have that one-off feeling and are completely unique.
