Letterpress Logo Notes for Sixgill
Sixgill’s logo uses a gradation of green — from light on the left to dark on the right. Normally that’s not the sort of thing letterpress does well. But using a fine halftone screen, we printed two shades of green on top of one another to achieve the gradation effect.

Fluorescent Festivities | Neon Nuptials
These might be my favorite client-designed invitations this year. The bride, Nisha, designed three different invites for her various California wedding festivities.

A Golden Hex
Bax’s cards presented a special challenge. Normally, to create an odd shape (basically anything non-rectangular), we’d make a die and die-cut the cards.

Red Flooded Business Cards
Solid floods of color can be tricky with letterpress. But if you play your no-pun-intended cards right, you can get great results. Lighter/brighter colors tend to print more evenly.
