Making Things! 👷🏼

Hello Good Lookers,

I know. Word is, print is dead.

But for me there's something about the touch of paper or the weight of a lifting a box that reminds me that I am human. A scratched surface or a water mark speaks to the passage of time. A piece of paper untethered to the internet doesn't know how to pop-up or notify us of anything. It just waits patiently for us to place our attention on it, when we're ready.

So I say physical, printed products are incredibly valuable in this digital age. Which is what inspired me to set up Just Looking Press.

My criteria for this press is that anything we make must be beautiful, sustainable and enduring enough to justify the carbon footprint, and the physical and mental space it takes up in our lives. 🤞🏼

I'd like to thank everyone who's supporting this project: especially creative director Ana Grigorovici, and the couldn't-have-asked-for-better Friends of Just Looking.

Stay curious out there!
