DESIGN INSPIRERS​
Brian and Sara Turner have been making art for decades. In 2003, they started Cricket Press from a tiny studio in their home of Lexington, KY. Together they have created their own unique and quirky vision of the world, translating their characteristic illustrations through the hand-printed processes of letterpress and screen-printing. When they’re not ruining their clothes slinging ink on paper, Cricket Press also spends time on numerous design and illustration projects, as well as making various hand-printed goods and hand-crafted items.
At our core, we are a company of makers. We make real things that make a real impact. We make connections between people and ideas. What we make helps print go from simply good to truly great.
Poster House is dedicated to presenting the impact, culture, and design of posters, both as historical documents and methods of contemporary visual communication.
