NOVAGOLD

NOVAGOLD

2021 marked the ninth consecutive annual report collaboration between helveticka and NOVAGOLD. A Clear Path Forward included a special feature: John Hathaway, one of the precious metals company’s longtime shareholders, discussing the gold market trajectory, jurisdictional safety, and cryptocurrencies with Dr. Thomas S. Kaplan, chairman of the board of directors at NOVAGOLD. View the report.

For NOVAGOLD’s 2020 annual report, helveticka combined the Vancouver, BC-based company’s 2020 financial and sustainability summaries into a single, 52-page integrated report. View the report.

NOVAGOLD

Opening with a big, bold statement on the cover, NOVAGOLD bet on the power of storytelling with its 2019 annual report, including a section devoted to the people of the Yukon-Kuskokwim region of southwestern Alaska, where the company has a 50-percent interest in one of the world’s top-tier gold assets. View the report.

NOVAGOLD

In 2012, NOVAGOLD “laid out a clear roadmap for investors.” Six years later, the precious metals company delivered in every conceivable way. Its 2018 annual report outlines the promises made and kept – not only to investors, but also to Native and community partners. View the report.

Pressworks

Pressworks

The Spokane printing company’s 2019 holiday card was a 12.5"w x 39.5"h poster, printed two-sided as a single pass using metallic inks. Inspired by Shel Silverstein’s “Snowball” from his poetry collection Falling Up, the poster was accompanied by a bag of “Pressworks Brand No-Mess Office Snowballs.”

Pressworks

2018’s card was even more of a radical departure from convention than usual: a Bob Ross-inspired video, the painting from which served as the card cover.

Pressworks

An homage to Dr. Seuss, the 2017 card offered five interpretations of a still from the 1966 animated television special How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, with Van Gogh, Lichtenstein, Picasso, Warhol, and a Pressworks employee’s 9-year-old daughter featured.

Pressworks

The 2016 card enabled recipients to customize one of six vintage photographs with a series of captions (or they could create their own). It came with a built-in easel that not only allowed for displaying on flat surfaces, but also provided storage for the excess captions.

Pressworks

For 2015, helveticka designed an assemble-yourself winter wonderland scene, letterpress-printed on cover weight stock. Both the scene and the accompanying card were die-cut and silver-foiled; the card was also embossed.

Pressworks

Helveticka’s unique take on Pressworks’ 2014 holiday card took advantage of the client’s vintage 1940s-era Heidelberg Windmill printing press, and included ornaments, gift tags, and coasters.

CX30

helveticka

In conjunction with CX30: Creative Experiences, Thirty Collaborators – an exhibit curated, designed, written, and installed by helveticka to celebrate its 30th anniversary – the firm produced a commemorative book. View the book.

CX30

The 68-page limited-edition book, entitled CX30, commits to print all 30 of the exhibit’s featured stories.

CX30

Those stories include personal insights, anecdotes, and reflections from select collaborators who played a role in helveticka’s success over the last three decades.

CX30

Each story is expressed through typography treatments that attempt to capture not only the essence of that story, but also the collaborator’s personality.

CX30

That approach makes each page spread unique – just like the individuals themselves.

CX30

More than 50 different Helvetica fonts were used throughout the 11" x 11" book.

CX30

The book was presented to each collaborator at a ceremony opening the exhibit.

Helveticahaus

A pair of mini-posters, adapted from a design by SFCC student Corri Woods, pay homage to Eduard Hoffmann and Max Miedinger – the creators of Helvetica.

Helveticahaus

These coasters, designed for online retailer Helveticahaus, were letterpress printed on 220-lb. Crane’s Lettra Fluorescent White, a 100% pure cotton paper.

Helveticahaus

Printed on 220-lb. cotton paper, Helveticahaus’ business cards feature an imagined conversation between the creators of the namesake typeface; thank-you notes playfully employ the company’s logo.

Helveticahaus

Helveticahaus partnered with local coffee roaster DOMA for Haus Blend, part of a product line devoted to Hh’s namesake sans serif font.

Helveticahaus

The coffee is available for purchase by the pound or through a monthly subscription service. Proceeds fund scholarships for area design students.
