CONSTRUCT FIELD TRIP

We love Erik Spiekermann. Erik and Construct go way back, and after a chat in the studio we decided that a trip to his studio in Berlin would be the perfect chance to bring together a handful of Construct friends.

We popped over last Friday with our friends from COS, Port magazine and Folk digital agency for a letterpress workshop lead by Erik. The day completely blew us away – Erik and the team were brilliant and their passion for what they do was incredibly inspiring.

Each group produced amazing results. COS took an abstract approach, Folk and Port designed a clever antidote for tired iMac eyes and we at Construct took a poke at ourselves with one of our favourite studio quotes (it’s a long story).


After an introduction from Erik to his studio and team as well as materials and processes we were let loose to design our concepts, choose our materials and get set up to print.

We’d like to give a massive thank you to Erik and his team for having us, and of course to our friends at COS, Port and Folk for coming along too!
