Golden Rule Letterpress Poster

Posted on by Hijiri

Golden Rule Letterpress Poster by Studio On Fire caught my eye more than ever (first found via swissmiss). That’s exactly what my parents told us to do growing up! And it’s such a lovely collaboration of a father and son; All elements are hand drawn by Koen (age 6) with a Sharpie marker at the dining room table, then arranged digitally in our studio. The type is the “Golden Rule” as penned in the honest hand of a child. How awesome and sweet is that?! And it is beautifully letterpressed, that completes it!

It’s great for kids’ room, but I want one for myself, too!

Found Type: Mermaid Oyster Bar

Posted on by Hijiri

Great hand-lettering of the Mermaid Inn (Oyster Bar) chalkboard in West Village. Caught my eye. Sounds good, too, right? :)

((It was a night time, sorry for the dark and blurry photos…))

I LOVE their logo from the second I saw it, designed by the amazing Louise Fili. This is the store sign of the Oyster Bar.

and I love their matches, too. I usually take home few to light candles at home :)

and their food? SO GOOD!! There, it completes everything.

Off to printing! See you tomorrow. xo Hijiri

Found Type: Wine Chalkboard Sign

Posted on by Hijiri

Found this great handwritten chalkboard sign in front of Blanc & Rouge — a wine shop in DUMBO. Isn’t it lovely? Love the cursive type and decorative lines. Very nice!

On the back is a “Gin made in Brooklyn” sign. This side is cool, too.

By the way, did you see the font day over at Design*Sponge yesterday? I LOVED it!!! :)
Have a great day, everyone. I’m off to printing all day today…
