Bespoke letterpress greeting cards designed and printed for Borough Market. The cards are only available to buy from The Borough Market Store in London.
The ten-card range features different Market produce-related idioms. Each phrase was printed using a different typeface, a nod to the assortment of trader's signage displayed around the Market.
Green ink, a pale cream card with inclusions and kraft envelopes were chosen to reflect the Market's existing visual identity, with pastel labels to add colour and aid differentiation.
The designs were hand-set using antique metal type and printed using a hand-operated letterpress machine.
In line with the Market's sustainability policy, the cards are made from 100% recycled, uncoated stock with recycled kraft envelopes and have removable labels instead of plastic packaging.
