Winter 2020 - 48

BiBA Letterpress

Aesthetic of the Line? Equal parts sass and sophistication,
made oh-so-special by letterpress. We like to say design
and letterpress are our soul mates. They're the Sagittarius
to our Aries, the lashes to our Twiggy. We do old things in
new ways because we understand the value of both. It's
how we make art that people appreciate.
Current Bestseller? Bye Bye Sleep Cloud - sweet and fun
and so very true! The blind press with just a hint of color
makes this card speak to the heart and bring a smile.
Personal Favorite? I'm stupid in love with this dose of sass
married to an elegant, sophisticated aesthetic. It makes you look twice, and smile.
Surprise Hit? Older, Wiser, Better Looking. It's proof positive that people like to look on
the bright side of aging!
Iconic Selection? Biba is a new brand, but we were true to our Page Stationery roots
with our Frame Notes. With A1 flat note sets, people appreciate being able to jot off a
quick note rather than writing an epistle to fill space. We love them because the design
possibilities are endless - who doesn't like to have fun with a repeating pattern!
Favorite Color? Biba Pink, baby! PMS218.
Current Design Obsession? Overlapping colors inspired by Alan
Kitching, a British graphic designer and letterpress master.
What that man did with the alphabet is amazing. We tried
technique in our 2019 Holiday Collection, and you'll see our
take on it a lot more in 2020.
Circle 245
Favorite Flower? The poppy. You'll find it more than once in
our designs.
Favorite Indulgence? My happy place is a deserted beach with a
cocktail in one hand and a book in the other. Duh.
