sensory impact


TOUCH
There’s a resurgence of “getting real” again
and taking breaks from electronic overload.
Touching a page full of wonder and texture
elevates the message and captures attention.
There’s a spark of emotion as fingers brush
across smooth, rough or bumpy surfaces –
interest is won.
SEE
There’s a reason to look twice because big
and bold colors can energize. Or perhaps on
another page, the super soft hues whisper
a message to relax and breathe. Color and
design can definitely express a special mood
and convey a heightened message.
FEEL
A precious few moments is all you have to
make a connection, and if you’re lucky, stir an
emotional response. It’s up to you to fit top-
quality print techniques and materials with the
right messaging. Activate the senses to make
a real connection and command attention.
With print, you can make an impact!

MINIMALISM
Ultra-minimal typography and layouts will continue to move ahead and clear out the clutter.

Back to the basics – line drawings are making a comeback.

OLD FASHIONED & VINTAGE
