Project Description
The upcoming birth of your first child is something to celebrate. When Raúl and Elisa decided to celebrate love whit the people they love, we worked on this poster/invitation to the party hand-printed with engraved linoleum. Also we filmed the whole printing process in a video. This video was embedded on a website where the guests could get further information about how to arrive or where to stay.Production Lesson(s)
Sometimes little errors in composition or subtle random results of hand-made printing makes a simple piece just beautiful.
