With Compliments
Brief
Archive and present a collection of over 1,300 compliment slips through physical and digital experiences.
Insight
The project began with a collection of around 600 compliment slips inherited from a private archive. Through further research and acquisitions, the collection grew to over 1,300 slips. Although originally intended as disposable stationery, the slips provide a valuable record of graphic design, typography and visual identity across different industries and decades.
Idea
With Compliments turns this overlooked form of printed ephemera into an accessible archive, preserving the collection through editorial, physical and digital experiences. Online Archive (Work in Progress) : with-compliments.netlify.app
