Susan Hutchinson is an interior designer who is about to launch a new (online) business called Nesting- which focuses on kid and baby friendly design. To kick off her new venture, she needed business cards:
I think that they turned out very nicely, how about you?
The Curious & Company crew did a fantastic job designing the logo and business cards and are currently developing her website. Keep an eye out for it, and in the mean time, check her on on her blog Fleurishing!
look who has a website.

Don’t be alarmed. You are still on my blog. It just looks a little different because I finally got around to getting a website to go along with it. Novel idea, huh?
Say goodbye, the ink splatters are no more. 
Say hello to torn paper and a lot more photos. BIG thanks to Curious & Co. for doing such an amazing job!
Welcome to my website and (new) blog; Cleanwash has finally joined the 21st century!

I am sure that most of you who are old enough have heard of Stella Artois (warning: must be 21 to enter their site!) and are at least somewhat familiar with their logo:
Now look at this version:
Just one month ago, Terry (one of the very talented designers of Curious & Company) and her husband Josh welcomed their first child into the world: Stella Bennett Baker. As I mentioned in the post about her shower invites and thank you notes, Terry is not a fan of pink. It isn’t in her to design anything that isn’t smart and fun (and awesome). This announcement is no exception.
Elated and exhausted:
Baby proofed with the addition of a rattle and pacifier:
It just couldn’t be any more perfect.
Most of us go through that awkward stage where we find everything our parents do embarrassing or annoying (I certainly did). Hopefully Stella will move right on past that phase… In case she doesn’t, I’ll have a stack of these in reserve to show her that her parents are much cooler than she ever knew.
Terry and I have gotten to know each other over the past couple years and I quickly considered her a great friend. I am looking forward to our friendship in the years to come, and to watching this beautiful baby of hers (and Josh’s!) grow up.

fit for a chick

Terry of Curious & Company is expecting her first child (a girl- as you can probably guess by the color) this May. They decided to design her shower invitations and thank you notes around a baby chick (it happened to fall just before Easter). Both were printed in the perfect shade of salmon, for a mother-to-be who normally avoids pink like the plague. Always a happy medium…

a card, a solution

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of printing the business cards for Curious & Company: Philadelphia’s creative solutions firm. These double sided cards were printed on the same, extra thick, stock as the Cleanwash cards. They certainly make a statement!
Curious & Company offers design services for business, personal and anything in between. Whether you are looking for a new website, logo, or invitation, they are the people to see!
Their website launched this very morning. Check it out, soak it in. Whatever you do, make sure to keep an eye on them, their future is a bright one.

This morning my business cards were featured on card observer- a site dedicated to showcasing the latest in business card design and printing. Take a look at a few others that have been featured on the site:

Curious & Company helped me freshen up my logo a bit and gave me a few options for business cards. There were two designs that I really love and want to print; this is the first (and simplest) of the two. I printed them on an extra thick, 4 ply museum board, which gave me plenty of room to get a good impression on the backside. They have an amazing texture to them. Many people ask: “why letterpress?”. This is a great example…

Here is a hint of what is to come from the Claremont Collection- a line of wedding invitations by Curious & Company; Philadelphia’s newest design firm.
Letterpress printing is not an inexpensive process, but there are certainly ways to make it work for every budget. For this job only the invitation was letterpress printed (2 colors on 100% cotton ecru paper) and the reply card and envelopes were printed digitally.
