In 2024 I had the joy of interning at Grafische Werkplaates Amsterdam, a place that celebrates the importance of analogue printmaking, shining a light on its place in history and actively involving all sorts of creatives within it. This Book design demonstrates the combination of techniques mastered while I was on placement there, holding their value in a shared space.
“GWA will be 20 years old in 2024. To celebrate that and to ensure we can continue for another twenty years- we hereby personally invite you to become part of our beautiful location on NDSM wharf in an original way. By adopting one of the historic presses, you commit to GWA’s mission, contribute to the preservation of important graphic heritage and become visible in one of the hotspots of Amsterdam North.”
