McLaren and mermaids make a splash for ArmstrongQ

摘要

Sydney print and design house ArmstrongQ has launched its Body of Work Casino Collection in Sydney with an exhibition at the Trivett Bespoke showroom, alongside Rolls Royce, Aston Martin, Bentley and McLaren luxury cars. The Australian company wowed the US print industry last year by picking up nine Bennys at the 2013 Printing Industries of America Awards. The firm's Casino Collection, a series of 1.5m by 1m tactile wall hangings, is on display at Trivett Bespoke in Alexandria and will be available for rent at $200 per week this year. Aimed at commercial spaces such as casinos and hotels, the tactile prints are created using a modified Roland DG packaging machine. Some works feature precious metals and stones, others use a raised touchable finish for textured hair, costumes and sand.
