Letterpress Printing

Using traditional metal type alongside modern photopolymer plates, we practice letterpress as both a historic craft and a contemporary form of printing. Each impression is made individually, pressing ink and paper together to create a physicality that cannot be reproduced by digital processes.

From finely composed typography to custom artwork, invitations, correspondence, cards, and small editions, we print with an attention to weight, spacing, texture, and detail. Papers are selected for how they receive ink and respond to pressure; type is composed by hand, plates are carefully prepared, and every sheet passes through the press one at a time.

All of our letterpress projects are made using our Heidelberg Windmill Platen Press.

Studio Monoforma is proud to be Canada’s sole distributor of Favini luxury papers.
