Jehoaddan Elizabeth Strain

In the last year there has been a big manifestation of craft design, designers producing work in three dimensional and then presenting it in 2D via a camera and computer.

Jehoaddan, a young designer from the US has been using this technique to produce some really exciting posters. Although the craft technique can be time consuming and hard to rectify mistakes, there is always something endearing and passionate about the hands on approach. Working with your hands will inevitably create imperfections and this always produces interesting shapes and forms within typography and images. This hands on approach is something I have always tried to capture in my own work. Jenoaddan has also produced some real nice illustrations, particularly loving the beast screenprint on his site http://www.jehoaddan.com
Jean Jullien is another designer who uses this technique in commercial work for clients like French music and fashion house Kitsune Noir. http://www.jeanjullien.com/
