Autumn Swordfish Issue 24: Print First!!! The Designer's Laboratory

Autumn Swordfish Issue 24: "Print First!!! The Designer's Laboratory" is Released. One of the greatest joys for an editor, before a new issue reaches its readers, is discussing layouts with craftspeople at the printing press: engaging all five senses, raising our voices to debate layout details and colors, and experiencing the journey of print from concept to creation. The printing press is where the process feels most tangible. This sentiment goes beyond mere old-fashioned romance; it reflects a newfound appreciation for print as a vessel of culture. As the second installment of our "Design Trilogy Before 2020," we turn our attention to printing, an industry often perceived as "sunset." Rather than arguing for the immortality of print, we delve into the captivating pages of printing and design, uncovering the golden triangle relationship between print, design, and paper. This issue, in special collaboration with Heng Cheng Paper / Auspic Paper, includes a random "Raw & Cooked Autumn Swordfish Duo" poster. Bring your poster to RETRO Printing JAM within the specified time mentioned in the magazine before August, and you can print it for free, allowing you to experience the world of printing that captivates designers.
