Town Colour It Yourself Poster from Summerville

Posted on | Leave a comment

Il_570xN_197230033 
You may remember the Scandi Poster from Summerville we featured a while ago – now the same company Summerville have produced a new design on the same idea.

Where the Scandi design featured flowers, the Town Colour It Yourself poster should appeal to anyone with a love of architecture as it features rows of houses in different styles, along with passing traffic of vintage-looking cars. It has been screenprinted, but with only a black outline; the rest being left for you to colour in with pencils, felt tips or crayons as you wish.

It costs about £10 from the Summerville Etsy store.

Having mentioned Heal’s original exhibition of Scandinavian furniture in the post about their Arkiv Storage Unit earlier in the week, here is a poster advertising that event.

The Scandinavian Furniture Poster is taken from an advertisement from the Fifties. It features a typical midcentury chair and table in shades of yellow and blue that are also typical of the period. It is sold framed in a wooden frame.

It costs £90 from Heal’s.

Typetables Print by Proud Creative

Tables_big4
Learning by rote is deeply unfashionable these days, but Proud Creative's Typetables add a new dimension to memorising your multiplication tables.

Proud Creative's type nerds have laid out each table from one through to twelve in a different font to create an educational aid for kids that should be equally pleasing to design conscious parents – you can get your kids learning their arithmetic and school them in typography at the same time.

Typetables are litho printed on 115gsm McNoughton Colorit paper measuring 420 x 594mm. They are available in four delicious colours;  pink, green, blue and orange and cost £15 each from Unlimited Editions here.

Stoke Newington by Motor-bus print

Posted on | Leave a comment

Visit stoke newington
This Stoke Newington by Motor-bus print may sound like something dating back to the early twentieth century but in fact is a contemporary design – though one that draws on the style of classic travel posters. 

Designed by Beyond Thrilled, it's the first in their new series looking at different districts of London. The image shows Stoke Newington as it looks today. However, it's then given a retro feel by a green or a pink colourwash, overlaid with transport poster style typography to create an interesting piece of art. 

The print costs £60.

The Monkees 45th anniversary tour screenprint

Posted on | 2 Comments

Monk

Just got an email off Rhino about the Monkees going out on tour, also mentioning the merchandise on offer for said tour. Amongst all the t-shirts, there's this gem – The Monkees 45th anniversary tour screenprint.

It's a rather cool, vintage-style print made for the tour, a two-colour prong on 'thick cardstock'. Shame it only features the touring members (sorry Nesmith fans), but it's still an eye-catching item.

Grab it online at the Rhino site, $20 secures one.

We have featured both Piper Gates Design and its artwork for The Prisoner before, but this is something worth mentioning – a set of eight posters featuring The Prisoner, the sets limited to a run of 50.

As you can (or might remember), the artwork is a mix of The Prisoner and vintage Penguin books, combining to create something eye-catching and retro. This particular set features eight designs on posters measuring 30 x 40cm, printed on high quality 200 gram paper and in those limited numbers.

You can buy a set online via eBay for the rather tasty price of just £12.99. See some close-ups over the page.
