Printed Matter is a project about craft within the context of graphic design. It is a unique set of books, which combine cross-stitch embroidery and printing processes. These books are about tactile visual perception. My main influences come from Swiss typography, Dutch book design and Estonian language - in no particular order. By mixing high and low tech, screen based media with slower crafts, Evelin investigates different ways of seeing and experiencing visual messages.
