Christine Wisnieski: Oliver Printing 32nd Annual Clambake Materials

Designer Christine Wisnieski recently com­pleted the mate­ri­als for Oliver Printing’s 32nd Annual Clambake. I never thought I would catch myself say­ing I love lime green foil, but she def­i­nitely made it work. Something that could be incred­i­bly gar­ish looks super fun and sophis­ti­cated along­side the bold yet sim­ple illus­tra­tions and typography.

Type Love: Quadon

I’m really lov­ing Quadon, a mod­ern slab serif by René Bieder. The type­face fea­tures line weights, from Think to Black, with match­ing ital­ics, plus a wide range of alter­na­tive glyphs. Pick up a copy for your­self right here.

Kickstarter: Ugmonk’s OpenFrame

Ugmonk recently launched a new prod­uct, called OpenFrame, via Kickstarter. OpenFrame is “a sim­ple, flex­i­ble solu­tion to dis­play art, posters, pho­tos, and more.” It pro­vides a fram­ing sys­tem that accom­mo­dates mul­ti­ple sizes and con­fig­u­ra­tions of prints, a way to swap out art­work quickly and eas­ily and fea­tures spe­cial over­sized slots on the back for easy hang­ing. The frames are con­structed out of a com­bi­na­tion of birch ply­wood, birch veneer, and stain­less steel and comes in three dif­fer­ent sizes and fin­ishes. They have 25 fundrais­ing days to go and they’re already more than half way to their goal, so it’s look­ing promis­ing. If you want to join in, you can throw some sup­port their way right here.
