Atomica Mid-Century Print Effects

RELIVE THE ATOMIC AGE BY EFFORTLESSLY REPRODUCING THE ANALOG IMPERFECTIONS OF MID-CENTURY PRINTING FROM THE COMFORT OF YOUR DIGITAL STUDIO.

Part of our Signature Collection, Atomica was developed in collaboration with talented illustrator and mid-century print obsessive Adam Nickel.

Inspired by Adam’s signature aesthetic and built to compliment his (and your) busy studio workflow, the kit was crafted with speed and customisation in mind using authentic textures and source materials. The result? Atomica is the next best thing to your own vintage Heidelberg and an endless supply of 70 year old ink.
