A little visit to Hello! Lucky

I discovered Hello! Lucky, the well-known letterpress studio 4 years ago when I moved to San Francisco. At this time I was looking for a job and their studio looked like the dream place for me to work. Disappointed because they were not hiring but flattered when I saw this post on their blog. A few months ago, they wrote another lovely post about my work! I really wanted to meet them!

Yesterday morning, my friend Sandra and I visited their workshop located in Soma and I finally met the two lovely sisters Eunice and Sabrina Moyle who co-founded Hello! Lucky. Eunice illustrates while Sabrina does the business part. They were very friendly and gave us a little tour of where the magic happens! 15 employees divided between the pressroom and the showroom upstairs.

James, the printer who was working on the cutest elephant card nicely showed us the process of letterpress.

They have a cozy and fun workshop full of papers, tools, machines, ribbons, vintage objects…and of course all the cards! So many details to look at and photograph!

I could really see myself working in a space like that: two levels with a lot of natural light! I’ve worked on so many projects these last coupe of years, I have so many tools and papers now, it would be awesome to have a bigger space! One day I hope!

Seriously, how cool is this tiger?

And those flowers painted on the floor!

If you haven’t seen their online shop yet, don’t wait another minute!

  1. hello you lucky girl! I am so full of envy! Although I have been to the London base and was also inspired by the workspace. We are moving soon so I can have a home based studio and office, I will be letting the creativity flow in true Hello Lucky style – if they did a hello workspace book I would buy it!
    Love the photos and thanks for sharing.
