an ephemeral interlude
/Finished Eclecto notebooks made with magazine makeready, lined paper that I designed and customized with ephemera.
Today Shauna and James from Calgary advertising and design agency Trigger, stopped by for some mid-day creative fun. Throughout November, we've been hosting Thursday noon-hour creative workshops in UPPERCASE—offering designers a break from their usual routines and a chance to play. Today's session also offered me a nice pause from my desk; I've been glued to my computer—issue #16 is going to the printer next week!
I had a chance to rifle through some ephemera... enjoy!
