Hello friends! Just wanted to post this notice from our good friend Will Steacy’s blog:
“As some of you may know, I am being forced out of my apartment due to a $600 a month rent hike which I can not afford. Like many Americans at this time, I don’t know what I am going to. I can’t afford to pay the new rent and I don’t have the money to cover the costs of a move. In hopes to raise money to support a move I am offering a special Limited Edition print sale. Each of the five images shown below is available in an edition of 15 at the super affordable price of $150. All Limited Edition print details are listed below. Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity! Get ‘em while they last! Invest your money in art!”
So, if you, as we do, think these snaps are an amazing mix of melancholy and humor, snag one from Will’s site before they’ve all sold! Vive l’art!
We are so thrilled to show off the fruit of last weekend’s labor: the first printed edition of The Photographs Not Taken, an ongoing project of our good friend Will Steacy, in which photographers across the globe are asked to write about a moment in their lives that escaped camera and film.
We had a blast art directing this piece: from the page layout and cover design to binding and packaging. The uncomplicated aesthetic lends just the right amount of grace for the 29 intimate stories inside. We used red and white kitchen twine for thread and stitched each 76-page book with a traditional 3-hole pamphlet binding. For more information on this project, contact us here at EP Design or check out the blog and drop Will a note.
As soon as we discovered that Jodi Holiday over at Sympathy for the Kettle was sitting on the URL, www.MoreTeaPlease.com, we knew we had to design a little side project to brighten that corner of cyberspace. So here you have it, a celebration of teapots! Check back every Monday / Wednesday / Friday for new entries and, if you’re local (NYC!) and want us to photograph and include your pot or kettle, please contact us at thebird@editorialpinch.com!
Some things from childhood are just too splendid to grow out of. Point and case: the mathematical perfection of a well-executed spirographic doodle. While we put the finishing touches on this 2008 Editorial Pinch poster, enjoy a few whirligigs, doodads and thingamabobs.
It just can’t be helped! These rough drafts for Sympathy for the Kettle’s Persona Tea Editions have been such a pleasure to create - from choosing the right blends, brand naming, and designing these juicy labels, that we had to throw them out there to be seen! Stay tuned for more blends and notification of their ETA at the tea house!
