Promotional book for digital tritones

After a year of work, we feel really confident in our digital tritone printing. The technique allows for short-run books of exquisite quality at economical prices. To mark this achievement we’ve created a promotional book for our clients in the fine art, gallery, or museum professions.

This stunning book highlights our three standard ink sets – neutral, warm, and bright. The book was designed and produced by Ken Ekkens. If you’d like a copy, please contact your sales rep.
