Design To Touch is a comprehensive visual and technical guide to engraved printing and graphics from its historic origins to present-day use. The book also includes thirty exquisite and colorful engraved pages.
Engraving is a truly extraordinary printing medium. The raised surface and deeply saturated color creates a highly "touchable" and memorable result. Engraving has the look of hand-craftsmanship yet the process is capable of producing thousands of perfect impressions!
220 pages, 140 illustrations in color, including 30 engraved pages, 31 different Crane, Mohawk, and Neenah paper stocks.
