A Gift From Sappi To Designers

An Iconic Calendar For The First 200 GDUSA Readers Who Sign Up

Every year Studio Hinrichs creates a monthly calendar for type lovers. Hinrichs celebrates the classic fonts that have shaped the world of typography and introduces fonts created by brand new designers looking to make an impact in the world of type and design. This calendar, which is being sold on Amazon, celebrates the aesthetic and sculptural qualities of different letterforms. For many calendar years, Hinrichs chose to print on the best printing paper in the market — Sappi McCoy. It provides a consistent, beautiful bright-white printing surface — every time. Offering a powerful, luminous, one-of-a-kind finish, McCoy creates an experience that lasts. It’s the paper chosen by leading brands every day of the year.

With its simple design this calendar lets us ponder a font for a full month. Why? Because the beauty of type, like paper, is often overlooked. We sometimes see the words but miss the details, variety and emotional richness of the typeface itself even in a perfectly executed project. Our experience with paper can be like that, too. We see the images, type and color but can miss paying attention to the hand, the heft, and the haptics of a paper surface that makes our fingers as happy as type makes our eyes.

Get Your Very Own Copy

At past live events and conferences, Sappi would gift these calendars to lucky attendees. This year, they want to make a virtual experience as gratifying as an in-person experience. So, they are happy to help you celebrate every day (except Blursday, no need to celebrate that) with your very own copy of this coveted calendar. Sappi is offering this beautiful calendar to the first 200 of you  who sign up to receive a copy of the 12 x 18 calendar featuring all the fonts, designed in San Francisco, printed in Canada on paper made in Minnesota — Sappi McCoy.
