Project Description
I was commissioned by Omorovicza Cosmetics to design their annual christmas card. I wanted to keep it very simple but elegant at the same time.Production Lesson(s)
It's always a great feeling to see how my design comes alive through a beautiful Heidelberg windmill. The printer showed me the basics of this method, so I also got closer to my own design in a way. It's also interesting to use a 'letterpress way of thinking' already while designing where type styles, sizes and weights matter in a different way compared to other printing methods. We had to adjust the pressure around the exclamation mark so the space between the point and the stem would remain visible.
