Milan design duo recall Postmodernism of the 1980s with startling new stationery brand...

Write Sketch & (WS&) launch their new contemporary stationery brand with a flagrant disregard for grammatical convention; and a high quality 4-piece collection of heavily patterned, geometric notebooks — 100% made in Italy. Super! Collection, is “a real tribute to the 1980s postmodern movement and its most illustrious icons” say Matteo Carrubba and Angela Tomasoni, the Milanese duo behind the brand that pays homage to the style that Sottsass built.

Punctuation pedants will be troubled by names like Super! Joy, Super! Squared, Super! Sprinkles and Super! Confetti — all communicating a design dogma deeply-rooted in clashes of colour and overt expression. The use of a hot gold foil-stamped logo reproduced on both sides means the notebooks have the opportunity to be reversed, while the Fedrigoni™ paper and thread-stitched binding means this is not just an aesthetically pleasing set of stationery, but top quality too. And for those print graphics fans out there, the duo deliver an added surprise in each notebook, but we’re not telling you … you’ll have to find that out for yourselves.
