Coaster Design
I created this coaster design for my sister's wedding using Illustrator. After the design was complete, I used a letter press to transfer the design to the coasters. The transfer process includes a metal plate with a raised surface which is inked and then pressed onto the paper to produce the design. The raised metal slightly indents the paper which adds an element of interest to this type of design. One of the biggest challenges of letterpress design is that only one color may be used.
