Inspired by pizza boxes. The task for eskju was to print a limited T-shirt with an illustration initially made for German footwear magazine Sneaker Freaker. The package had to be affordable but cool, handmade and environment-friendly with a personal feel. They bought some cardboard boxes, the kind available everywhere on the web and designed the surface with changing tonal values and intense red color to increase the power of the logo. Combining analog techniques with modern typography and illustrations leads the way to get that unique look.
Eskju is a design factory with it’s own inhouse printshop, based in Bingen, Germany. Eskju was founded 2013 by Daniel Bretz and Oliver Jung. It is the perfect match between a creative illustrator and a very experienced printer. Concept, design and production - honest and handmade.
