Tielen Printers corporate identity, 2009

Against the backdrop of a changing market with more and more low cost / low service Internet printing companies entering the market Tielen Printers felt the strong desire to reinstate their commitment to high quality graphic productions. Baring this in mind Studio Kluif developed a corporate identity - or rather an overall communication concept - where the many facets of the printing profession play an important role. The result is a very versatile and colorful corporate identity that doubles as a perfect showcase of the many capabilities of Tielen Printers. For example, the business card is much more than a card with a name and a logo, it is - literally - a graphic giveaway. The no nonsense approach, craftsmanship and love for the profession is evident in every item of the corporate identity.

Tielen Printers series of booklets, 2009

The love for the profession and the world that surrounds it is the starting point for a series of booklets which neatly fit into the overall communication concept . In every booklet a different image maker (studio, designer, photographer, artist, etc.) gets total freedom to show themselves. These booklets aim to bring inspiration to the clients of Tielen and at the same time show what Drukkerij Tielen is all about.

Tielen Printers calendar, 2005

Designer Sander Tielen thought of a concept for a calendar consisting of two separate parts: a (laser cut) sleeve and a set of loose sheets, one for every month. When they are separate, the two look completely autonomous. However, when slid together, a clear and sleek calendar appears. The separate sleeve and sheets make it completely reusable, with new sheets every year. Simple, clever and consistent.
