AIGA Minnesota is a group consisting of consummate professionals who are very clear about what they like and what they don’t like. So when I was approached about printing the business cards for their Board of Directors, I knew that I needed to be on top of my game.
My contact within the organization, Joe Isaak, made it easy to work with such a formidable group of people. In the end it was not difficult to print the job given the clean design that they presented me with and the Classic Crest 165 pound paper which was donated to AIGA by Neenah.
This project was an enjoyable trip to take.
When Gutenberg was working on perfecting his printing process in the 1450s the major source of power was water (well, that and draft animals). In mills across the world water power was used for, among other things, the grinding of grain and the beating of pulp for the making of paper. In 2010 French Paper is still using a water powered mill to create perfection in the form of their delicious whip cream 140 pound cover stock.
