This poster created by Pasteinplace for ArtCrank Portland features three of the world’s top cycling cities drawn to the same scale. Each map includes the respective city’s hydrological features (to provide orientation) and the cycling network. The cycling network shows all bicycle routes that are physically marked, including bicycle lanes, cycle tracks, bicycle boulevards and off-street bicycle paths.

The aim of this project is to encourage comparisons and speculation about similarities and differences between the cycling networks (and bicycle cultures) in these cities.

Killer t-shirt collection aside, this crew of talented and creative individuals stood out from the beginning. We were stoked when they asked to us to print a couple of sizable stacks of cards and hang tags for them. Their simple, yet powerful logo was a great fit for the medium. See some of the process in this sweet video they created from the project. Also check out more of their work here.

Last spring we had the pleasure of meeting Justin Demers, one of the masterminds behind StillMotion, a filmmaking/storytelling/education based company working both in Canada and the US. Justin came to us with a design that definitely pushed our skills as printers in all the best ways. Not unlike the work they do on a daily basis, their cards were a full production and required tight registration, flooding, reverse debossing, pantone matching and rounded corners. Check out more of what they do here and, if you haven’t already, watch the video short they created with us called Here is the Proof.

Last Spring we were approached by Boyd Coffee Company and asked to create a limited-edition, commemorative letterpress broadside for the 24th Annual SCAA Exposition that took place here in Portland. As host sponsor, Boyd’s wanted the content of the prints to draw on the rich and vibrant Portland history and coffee culture. The edition of 300 was printed on our Universal I Vandercook Proof Press in 2-colors. Each print is signed and numbered. Broadsides and small prints are available for purchase in the Boyd’s online store. $5 of each broadside purchase will be donated to Grounds for Health.
