We wanted to experiment a touch with our latest cards using positive and negative space and the beautiful results attained from letterpress printing. The sunken area of fine dots creates a very tactile card and gives the false impression that the logo and name is embossed on the front. We chose a metallic silver ink to catch the light complimented by the vibrant red edge painting to subtly lift the monotone design.
English printers Typoretum were responsible for the printing using Dark Grey 540gsm Colourplan printed PMS 877 silver on both sides and PMS 485 Red Edge painting.
