THE PATTERN BOOK PAPILLONS GREETING CARD

The Pattern Book creates beautiful greetings cards from vintage graphics. Whether in a long-forgotten catalogue, an old scientific illustration, an obscure, even baffling, technical drawing, we’re fascinated by art, science and the history of ideas, seeking out thoughtful and unique designs in unusual places.
