studio on fire is a design and letterpress studio in minneapolis. their blog beast pieces showcases their incredible printing and fun, original design style. pictured here are some samples of their custom work including their own business cards, wedding invitations, a photographer's business card on blotter paper and a smartly designed card printed on tongue depressors for "design that talks."
i love love letterpress. it makes my heart flutter! it's the romantic combination of gutenberg's old-school method of printing, the tactile feel of the impressions on the page and the luxury of the paper running through the press for each colour of ink. i love that with modern technology a contemporary design can be intertwined with a traditional printing process.
