The Ordering Process
STEP 1
Select your edition: Essential, Premium or Custom
Choose from our 3 editions. Essential Edition aims right from the get-go while Premium Edition gives you the creative liberty to mix and match with up to 2 colours. Or you can go full avant-grade with our Custom Edition.
STEP 2
Place your order, and we’ll be in touch
Place your order via the order form — you will receive a confirmation email. We will be in touch within 2 business days to finalise the information like your brand logo, wording and colour selections.
STEP 3
Design process begins, you’ll receive a design proof
Once we received all your information, the design process begins right away. We will send you the design proof within 3-5 business days. Three digital revision rounds are included for minor changes to text and layout design. Any additional edits after this will incur a fee. Note: Skip this process if you already have a design.
STEP 4
Final proofing, and the production begins
As soon as the final design is approved, the designs will be sent to production. Digital printing takes about 1-2 weeks, letterpress and foil stamping take about 3-4 weeks. Allow an additional 1-2 weeks if special finishings are added. We will follow up when your goods are ready to deliver.
Printing Options
Letterpress Printing
Letterpress printing creates a deep impression (indentation) on paper with solid, matte inks using the vintage German presses. Perfect for you who are looking for a finished product that is delightful to the senses, visually and tactilely.
Full Colour Printing
Digital printing creates a flat, smooth finish on top of paper. Great for full colour (CMYK) artworks like watercolour paintings or illustrations.
Foil Stamping
Foil printing is the process of laying a sheet of metallic foil on paper that is then pressed with a metal plate using heat. Perfect for printing metallic tones, and works beautifully on both dark and light paper stocks.
Embossing & Debossing
A fresh addition to our specialty finishes offering. Embossing — pressed from the back side to leave an embossed effect on the front, and debossed effect on the back side. Simply put, one side raised, one side pressed.
Premium Paper Options
All of our paper materials are specially imported and FSC-certified, which ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits.
