Letterpress

Letterpress by Max Sames is not the usual Letterpress, we all know from the old times. It is a new interpretation of the old art to use high pressure and classic inks to find new ways of interpretation along with much higher pressure and todays wonderful soft stocks available from specialised mills.

Every letter, by the use of special letterpress tools made from modern composites, is pressed deeply into the stock to give a very threedimensional and vivid, almost playfull look of the design. Thus, you will an ancient look of printing combined with the opportunity of modern design and desktoppublishing.
Almost any design can be accomplished nowadays, while some years ago, a typical letterpress shop was able to choose from 4, maybe 5 typical types only. Let alone the reproduction of logofaces.

Choose from a wide variety of stocks, colors and types. And remember: Only your or the designers fantasy is the limit to what can be accomplished by this wonderful technique!
