Green Chair Press

Synesthesia
Susan Angebranndt runs Green Chair Press from a studio in California she shares with a 1968 VW crew cab and a 1975 vintage race car. Her website is full of punchy letterpress prints and beautifully bound handmade books. I think I first heard of her through Decor8's Calendar Round-up, which is a bit of a goldmine in terms of small independent letterpress printers, not to mention a great Christmas Present resource! Susan also writes a really interesting blog herself.

One print that really stood out to me was Synesthesia. I think it's a really simple and beautiful representation of this strange logic.

Synesthesia on Wikipedia.

To quote a quote; Books finely printed are small castles of man —Pablo Neruda.
