Wedding Invite
Simply removing the dot from the word ‘claire’ reveals the word ‘dave’ proving that they really were meant to be together. The word ‘dave’ was printed in metallic blue on uncoated white stock and covered by a translucent stock which carried the dot of the ‘i’ and the wedding details on the reverse. The two sheets were then stitched together with white cotton. Entered into D&AD 2007 Annual. Won Gold in the New York Festivals.

Very clever! I like how much was accomplished by a simple dot on an overlay. A very good design.

Now this for a change is excellent non-commercial design, and it even won an award, how about that?
I have to repeat the others. brilliant

I must need to brush up on my cursive, cause it looked like Claive or Dave with a dot on it. I didn’t see “Claire” until I read the description.
Good idea though.

This is so clever. Though I agree somewhat with Scott about the legibility, it is the compromise that has to be made to come up with such a smart execution.
