OUR WORK
ABOUT US
Somersault is an award-winning letterpress print and design studio with a focus on creating custom event invitations and brand identities for discriminating clients who desire a more tangible way to tell their story.
​
Using old vintage presses from the 1930’s and 1950’s, ink and foil are debossed down into ultra thick, sumptuous paper creating a luxurious and tactile feel unlike anything digitally printed. The machines may be vintage in nature, but the design is perfectly contemporary and together, this exquisite blend of old and new combined with thick, beautiful paper stocks, creates a piece worth holding onto.
The studio began in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2011 and moved east to the historic town of Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania in 2015. The work is the combined talents of Mitch Hanson and Amy Pienta - one part love of machinery, one part love of design, and equal parts love of creating beautiful printed pieces.
