Pirrip Press are Alex Higlett & Georgina Hounsome. We’re a two-woman illustration, design & print duo, specialising in Silkscreen printing. Here’s us in the studio :)
We work on all sorts of projects; book and magazine covers and illustrations, visual identities for small businesses, packaging illustration, design, spot illustrations and more. We also work directly with couples on bespoke hand screenprinted wedding stationery.
We design and make our own products (greetings cards, books, artwork, and other printed ephemera) here in Bristol, working at our home studio, printing at Spike Print Studio, and selling in our online shop and wholesale to other stockists. We screenprint as ethically as we can using recycled and FSC assured card and paper, Earth Positive clothing blanks and water based inks, along with re-using leftovers, using biodegradable packaging where possible and being naturally opposed to waste!
We like to tell stories, and know that things have more authenticity if there’s research and thought behind them so there’s invariably a narrative woven into what we produce. And we love to be outdoors, so the natural world is our biggest source of inspiration :)
If you’d like to get in touch about a project, commission some wedding stationery, stock our work, or anything else, use the contact page or send us an email
You can read reviews of how others have found working with Pirrip through google here.
And here’s us laughing at ourselves outside Pirrip HQ - the garden studio which we built in ‘lockdown’!
