Tugboat Printshop

Lesley Taylor | Leave a Comment

Not all things handmade are well made. And sometimes the "maker" revolution feels simply too contrived and ripe for parody. However, when I see the work of Tugboat Printshop, I feel inspired. It reminds me how amazing hand crafted can be. This is not work that can get turned out quickly from a computer to emulate the look of woodcut. Here, wood is carved. Ink is rolled.

The State of Design: Alabama

Lesley Taylor | Leave a Comment

I must admit, I was a just a little nervous starting out with Alabama for The State of Design series. I don't know much about Alabama, but know from experience that you can find excellent design in the most surprising of places. With this in mind, I went to my starting point, Etsy, to look for inspiration. The initial results were a little concerning. I'm not sure how a … [Read more...]
