PRINTWORK is showcasing how prints can get the ability and performing skills to bring publications and promotions alive. In addition, this book suggests the difference between the old printing methd and that of modren, through the presentation of the print works.

“DANI KULTIRE ISLANDA” Designed by Karlssonwilker inc.

Most of prints on the products is shown to be a visual representation for the product itself, and it needs ability to make more memorabl itself for the consumer. The wild ideas, the fantastic visualisation, the special texture when it is being touched, and the format that it was being presented, these essences are there to be a big value.

Lithography, woodcuts, etching and screen-prints are the traditional methods for the print; moreover printing effects also within its field. For example, there are UV varnishing, hot stamping, embossing, dei-cutting and so on. On the other hand, designers and artists confront with a new challenge of printing techniques because of popularization of computers and the internet in these days.
