Our campfire piece will be featured in a new book called Impressive from German publisher, Gestalten. The book is a ”topical exploration of the interplay between current trends in graphic design and traditional handiwork such as letterpress printing, hand-cut linotype, chiselled woodblocks, and embossing.“ (It’s also hardcover!) Due out in April.
