Driving Home For Christmas

Our latest addition to our Not On The High Street shop. The ubiquitous motorway sign doesn't need any introduction, originally designed by Margaret Calvert and Jock Kinneir their road sign system has been copied by many countries throughout the world and now by The Design Conspiracy!

We thought that this classic piece of design needs elevating to art status, primarily in a frame on your wall. So if you're from Manchester, Nottingham or Leeds or have any connection with these cities take a look at our new screen prints available framed or unframed at A3 or A2.

 

The High Street Online

We were very pleased to be invited by Not On The High Street to join their online marketplace some months ago. However moving studio and doing the day job have delayed our debut until now but finally we are live!

Just in time for the christmas season (although for other retailers this started back in september!) We'll be updating some new stuff over the next few weeks too keep checking regularly. 

Finally like your actual high street why not take a browse and see if anything takes your fancy!

Goo and Glitter

So, the all new print studio is up and running, not quite at 100%, but we will see what we need to address as we use it, so far so good - need to address storage issue and the darkroom area is being amended on a weekly basis, but it is all good fun.

Also this week we recieved these beauties, yup, 144pt Bodoni Poster. Looking forward to putting them on the press.

Keep an eye out for the work we have been doing with the contents of these salt and pepper pots, AB did lots of experimenting to find the perfect finish, and I can vouch that the end product, is delicious.
