Andy Smith is back with some of his indelible typography, this time in the form of a silkscreened book called ‘Blue Inks’. As you may have guessed, the book is printed entirely in shades of blue, and tells the story of the day-to-day life of a colour, including the daily struggle with long-standing enemies such as the yellows and the magentas! The books are hand-printed by Andy himself and we’re lucky enough to have to book+poster sets to give away!! Here’s what you have to do…

@liambrazier I’d go all Tobias Fünke with some #blueinks – it’s the only look that goes with denim shorts on a near 30 male right?

@DirtyEnid I’d write ‘red’ in big letters on a sign, and see if it confused anyone #blueinks
