POSTCARD BOOK | QUADRILINGUAL WEBSITE
Postcard is the very first major publication conceived, compiled, written and designed by Agathe Jacquillat and Tomi Vollauschek at London-based design studio FL@33.
___ The original English edition of Postcard was released in September 2008 by Laurence King Publishing. Several foreign language editions were also released by their international partner publishers including a French edition by Pyramyd Editions entitled Cartes Postales, a Spanish edition by Gustavo Gili entitled Postales – Diseño por correo and a German edition who kept the original English title Postcard (but added the German subtitle Postkarten-Design heute) by DuMont – Literatur und Kunstverlag.



___ Official blurb: It's the only book to document recent postcard design, this will appeal to anyone interested in art, design and graphics and taps into the trend for postcards – popular in art, advertising and as limited editions for collectors.
___ The book features on 224 pages over 800 hand-picked postcards and postcard-related projects by over 130 artists, illustrators, photographers, designers, studios and collectives from all around the world, with emerging talents sitting alongside established artists. Features handmade artworks, limited edition sets and books, commercial promo cards, high-tech postcards and interactive online projects that successfully link the virtual with the physical world. See sample spreads and a list of stockists here.

POSTCARD | DEDICATED WEBSITE
We also launched a dedicated FL@33-designed and built website – postcard-book.info – featuring details such as the complete list of contributors, previews of the original English and all foreign language editions.

The book comes in an exciting packaging FL@33 developed back in February 2007. Its die-cut cover reveals details from the 20 commissioned postcards contained in pockets behind the cover.
