Pressed & Folded

Founded in London in 2016 by James and Malissa Brown, Pressed & Folded is an independent design studio creating greeting cards and hand-printed linocuts in small batches in the UK. Their work is stocked by some of the finest independent shops and galleries around the world.

Rooted in bold, playful aesthetics, Pressed & Folded combines typography, illustration, and vibrant colour to create designs that are as distinctive as they are joyful. Whether you're sending a thoughtful note, celebrating a special occasion, or simply saying hello, a greeting from Pressed & Folded is just the ticket.

In 2022, the studio relocated to Somerset, where James and Malissa opened the Pressed & Folded showroom and studio at Makers Yard in Frome.

Alongside their core collection, Pressed & Folded has collaborated on bespoke designs for Archivist, The Shoemakers Museum, and Bristol Dockyard Museum (formerly SS Great Britain), bringing their signature style to a range of unique commissions.
