Typography
Gotham by Hoefler & Frere-Jones
Combining Art Deco influences with modern typefaces, Jerome and Micaela’s wedding materials make geometry sexy again. Doesn’t that invitation look a-MAZE-ing?!
Registration was critical for the successful execution of this concept and when you’re printing by hand that can always be a little tricky. On top of the normal registration marks we use to hold our paper in place we added woodblocks on either side of the screen held place by C-clamps to prevent the screen from miss registering over the course of the run.
