New Hahnemühle Inkjet Papers

We're thrilled to introduce three new TIPA Award winning inkjet papers to the Hahnemühle family.  

Joining the classic Photo Rag range we have Photo Rag Matt Baryta, a gorgeous alternative to classic darkroom baryta papers.  This one in particular has attracted a lot of attention as a stunning new option.

For everyday photo and poster printing, we present Hahnemühle Silk Baryta X, a silky gloss paper with the appearance of traditional silver halide paper, and Sustainable Photo Satin, a semi-gloss paper that is 100% recyclable due to it's innovative plastic composite free bio inkjet coating - a great alternative to your current resin coated paper options.  Less plastic is always a good thing!

Available for pre-order now, with limited stocks arriving in early November.

MSI Stealth 14 AI Studio Evaluation

We're getting increasing enquires about OLED and Mini/Micro LED displays.  Whilst there aren't yet any serious colour accurate desktop options, we are seeing screens of interest appear in the laptop domain.

As we're also often asked to recommend the best laptop for professional image making work, we've decided to do a deep dive into a powerful PC laptop - the MSI Stealth 14 AI Studio - with an OLED screen that is ideal for some types of content creation work.

The Wilderness Society: 30 Years of Nature Book Illustration

We were proud to print this gorgeous exhibition for the Wilderness Society celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Environment Award for Children's Literature.   The exhibition features a selection of illustrations from books short-listed over the last three decades for this influential award, showcasing many much-loved Australian illustrators and author-illustrators. 

The artworks will be on display from 3-31 October across three locations: The Wheeler Centre, the Moat and Readings State Library Victoria, as part of the Wilderness Society's Nature Book Week.

As always, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch.
