Print Prologue

Print Prologue is an ongoing series of print and digital products I’ve designed and directed for the growing community of creative thinkers. Right now, the products have a central theme of informing, educating and celebrating the process of print design and the details that make it unique, but we’re excited to explore more concepts in the future. Currently, it includes a series of limited edition notebooks, a yearly wall planner and a web guide for small-format print design. Print Prologue products have been sold in small book and zine shops, at local pop-ups and through our online web store.
