NYC Map

I saw this room image over at simplygrove’s flickr photostream and I had to ask where this print/poster is from… she says “Ikea“!

and sure enough, I found it at Ikea website:

I think I will get one! Thank you, Kirsten!

*another great Ikea poster I saw over at To Be Inspired here… time to make a trip, I guess!

New: LWYL Posters

It was time to print more Live What You Love posters! I printed total of 6 colors in this batch and they are available right here at my etsy shop :)

But as usual, I wanted to share some pictures from the studio…

Type setting — look how beautiful the wood type blocks are! I am in love every time…

on Vandercook press:

Adjusting the placement of the letters — I love the overlapping part, I wanna make art by using this technique next time…

And here are the posters! Each poster is very limited in quantity… as this is really a lot of work…

Yellow:

Grey:

Brown (new as well):

It actually looks great with hard wood floor and brown furniture around the house.

and last but not least, Royal blue (this is new, too):

Thank you always for looking! :)

And did you know this is all coming from an advertising campaign for New York City?! (I tried to look for the original commercial on YouTube, but I couldn’t find the right one…) I didn’t know that until I saw the movie Art & Copy — pretty amazing to think about how ad campaign effects soo many things even 30-40 years later!

Happy Friday, everyone!!
