Loose Leaf Edition 2

It took us over a year, but we’re pleased to finally be shipping Loose Leaf edition 2 – Landscape.

We approached artists worldwide to gather and commission artworks around the theme of ‘landscape’ and, as with edition 1, presented them as beautiful large scale prints, pre-hole punched to hang on your wall with push pins.

Edition 2 features works by: Jon Boam, Nicholas Alan Cope, Chris Dent, Justin Fantl, Vincent Fournier, Hiroshi Kan, NASA, Richard Niessen, Casey Reas, and Youngsuk Suh.

We’re selling Loose Leaf at a new lower price of $35. We have also lowered the price of Edition 1, and are offering an even cheaper bundle price for both editions. Head to our Shop page for more info.

Create Great Podcast, Episode 16

Tom recently joined David Bennett on Create Great, a podcast featuring creative voices from across industries and disciplines. Their conversation traces Tom's path from the North of England to founding Manual in San Francisco, exploring what he's discovered about building genuine client relationships and navigating the complexities of creative collaboration. Tom discusses why clear communication often trumps clever design, how to handle the inevitable tensions between vision and feedback, and the particular responsibility that comes with shaping the brands people encounter daily. It's an honest look at taste, timing, and the understated influence of branding work—helping craft the everyday things people see, use, and connect with.
