Our Labor of Love
Lilikoi Design + Letterpress is a graphic design and letterpress printing studio founded in 2007, providing letterpress work using hand operated presses. Letterpress and foil printing projects are oered with custom artwork created by Lilikoi as well as artwork provided by their clients. Projects include wedding invitations, business cards, stationery, menus, hang tags and baby announcements. In addition to custom work, Lilikoi Design + Letterpress proudly launched a retail collection in 2014, inspired by the simple joy of giving and receiving handwritten notes.
It’s All in the Details
The important practices within the studio culture keep Lilikoi unique. This is achieved by staying true to the traditional art of letterpress, which involves mixing inks and printing by hand
with 100% cotton paper that is specifically made for letterpress. Lilikoi believes the press will produce outstanding work with the best combination of design, materials, patience and a talented operator. This is also achieved with the love and attention to detail they pour into their products and the amazing clients they get to know. This comes naturally due to the combination of custom projects and the variety of capabilities oered by Lilikoi.
A Note from the Studio
Since we opened our doors in 2007 we have grown steadily by creating and producing custom projects, running our studio with sustainable practices and using high quality, carefully chosen materials made in the USA. We are dedicated to provide outstanding service and work closely with each client to create a unique and beautiful product. In 2011 we expanded our Los Angeles location with a second studio location in San Francisco, which oers private lessons and group workshops—perfect for the hands-on, inquisitive artist community. Our custom offerings have been recognized in a wide variety of online, television and print media outlets such as Martha Stewart Weddings, Lucky Magazine, The Today Show and the blog Oh So Beautiful Paper. We introduce our retail collection with great pride—in hopes it will be received with an open heart by those who share in the love of letterpress and the art of the handwritten note.
Retail Collection
Lilikoi retail products are inspired by clean, classic and clever designs that are meaningful and perfect for all occasions. The collection of folded notes, flat stationery, frame-worthy prints, small notes and gift tags were created to express love for handmade products and encourage the art of the handwritten note. All products are not only made by hand with a labor intensive, original art form—they are one of a kind and beautifully tactile. They are sure to stand out amongst other printed items.
