Cool Hunting Video: Thornwillow Press
From papermaking to printing and publishing, this upstate NY-based company does it all while keeping modern technology at arm’s length
When upstate in Newburgh, NY recently, we visited Thornwillow Press headquarters. Founder Luke Ives Pontifell (who started the company in 1985 as a labor of love) guided us through his diverse collection of printing processes and presses, as well as his eclectic anthology of original published works. Offering a high honor to the written word, Thornwillow Press preserves antiquated printmaking and book-binding techniques and shares renowned literature in exquisite, handmade shells.
