How To Ink — The Greater Goods

posted by Marcroy April 15, 2016

The founders of How To Ink share a common passion in printmaking and handicrafts. As aspiring graphic designers, they hope to push forward boundaries of craftsmanship and share their knowledge with fellow designers, students and hobbyists. Their mantra is to have fun in the process of picking up a new skill.

The Greater Goods is an initiative by How To Ink that shares knowledge about printmaking and handicraft through fun and memorable prints. The idea behind this interactive show was based upon their philosophy of learning and advocating through play. Exploring different mediums and techniques with every collection, they aim to inspire people to experience and have fun in the process of creating their own labour of love.

For the first collection, 10 different creatives were invited to contribute an artwork for the show. Using tote bag as a medium, How To Ink seeks to advocate about screen printing for their first collection. At the show, visitors select an artwork that they like and have it screen printed on the tote bag themselves. This process not only allows them to have first hand experience creating their own labour of love, but also learn more about the technique and process of screen printing at the same time.
