About This Collection
Typography art prints depend on two things: the line and the lettering. Get the line wrong and it's a fridge magnet; get the lettering wrong and nobody reads the line. The collection falls into a few clear strands.
Dog quote and club prints. The best sellers here belong to dogs. The Whippet Morning Quote Print, which says "Oooooh Big Stretch" and means every vowel of it, is the most popular typography print in the collection, with the Greyhound Rise and Shine Print close behind. The breed club series, including The Dachshund Club Typography Print, also covers labradors, whippets, greyhounds, border collies and Italian greyhounds, while the Dogs Welcome People Tolerated Print says what a lot of households already think.
Kitchen and drink typography. The largest strand is retro kitchen typography. The More Crema Less Drama Print, the Fancy a Brew? Kitchen Print, the Bagel Club Kitchen Print and the Meet Me In The Kitchen Print all make their point quickly. The wine prints, from Save Water Drink Wine to Cheese Wine Repeat, are refreshingly honest about priorities, and Merci, Bonjour and Ciao cover the continental end in a single word each.
Bathroom and attitude prints. This is where the collection loosens its collar. The Nice Bum Peach Print leads a small family of peach-themed bathroom prints, and the To Pee or Not to Pee Shakespeare Print gives Hamlet a new setting. Alongside them sit the prints for anyone whose inner monologue deserves a frame: the This Is My Villain Era Print, the Running On Coffee And Spite Print and Sorry I'm Late I Didn't Want To Come.
Gentle quotes and words. At the quieter end are the striped quote prints such as Here We Have Everything, home prints like Where We Gather We Grow, and word-lover pieces like the Tsundoku Definition Print and the Petrichor and Resfeber definitions. For more of that, the literature prints collection and the poem prints collection go further, and the funny wall art collection has more of the one-liners.
What rooms suit typography prints?
Kitchens take typography better than almost any other room, because a short, bold line reads from across the worktop. The retro kitchen prints and wine prints are made for exactly that spot, and the kitchen prints collection has more in the same spirit.
Bathrooms suit the peach prints, This Shower Is For Singing and Scrub A Dub Dub. A small wall, a captive audience and one good line is a strong combination.
Home offices and hallways suit the dog quote prints and the attitude prints. Running On Coffee And Spite above a desk is simply accurate, and Dogs Welcome People Tolerated by the front door sets expectations for visitors.
For gallery walls, mix typography with illustration so the words have room to breathe. Two or three typography prints alongside pieces from the bathroom prints collection or the office wall art collection usually works better than a wall of text all talking at once.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are typography prints?
Typography prints are artworks where the lettering is the main subject: a quote, a phrase, a single word or a definition, designed so the type itself does the visual work. In this collection that covers retro kitchen, coffee and wine typography; bathroom prints; dog quote and breed club prints; funny attitude prints; striped quote and affirmation prints; definition prints; LOVE typography prints; and a few seasonal autumn and Halloween designs.
Are typography prints good gifts?
They're among the easier gifts to get right, because the words do most of the choosing for you. The breed club prints suit owners of that exact breed, the kitchen and wine prints suit anyone who cooks or hosts, the definition prints suit readers, and the LOVE prints suit anniversaries and new homes.
Do typography prints work as a set?
Yes, particularly within a strand. The kitchen prints share a retro feel, so two or three together read as a deliberate set above a worktop or dining table, and the breed club prints hang well as a pair. Buy 2, save 10%; buy 3, save 15%, applied automatically at checkout.
What sizes are available?
Most prints are available in sizes from 5x7 up to A1, with both metric and US paper sizes. Full size options are shown on each individual product page. For kitchens and bathrooms, A4 and A3 suit most walls; for a single line meant to be read from across a living room or hallway, A2 gives the lettering room to work.
Can all prints be ordered framed?
Yes. All prints can be ordered framed. We're rolling framed options out across the site, so individual listings will show whether a framed version is currently available. If you'd like a framed version of a print that doesn't yet have that option listed, get in touch and we'll sort it for you.
What is the print quality like?
Prints are produced on FSC-certified 200gsm fine art paper using a 12-colour press with a matte, glare-free finish. The matte finish suits lettering in particular, since words stay easy to read from any angle without glare getting in the way.
