GFSmith / / Colour / / Letterpress

Relationship between STOCK+INK.
Possible ticket / / mailout inspiration.



This is an interesting showcase of the relationship between ink and stock with relation to print and production.  Obviously one of the main points to our exhibition is that the target audience are designers / / printers / / graphic designers- this is design that we want to receive, and design that we should be receiving if we are to be taken seriously when it comes to the competition- 'become an expert on everything that you look into'

Promoting letterpress:
Packaged in a wax-sealed bellyband and housed in a  card folder, the five letterpresses postcards within the package feature lyrics from songs by some of Vernon's favourite Glasgow-based bands.
"Everything was printed on duplex GF Smith colorplan, except the Frightened Rabbit postcard which was printed on triplex," explains Vernon of the thick, colourful and layered stock the postcards are printed on.
