Corporate Workshops & Events
The Ultimate Antidote to Digital Fatigue
Looking for a fresh, creative take on corporate team building in London?
Step away from the screens and discover the tactile, hands-on world of traditional letterpress. Our creative workplace workshops offer a unique blend of historical craft, collaboration, and mindful relaxation - making them the perfect fit for corporate wellness days, staff team building, client entertaining, and private team events.
We bring the studio directly to your office. Whether you are hosting a team away-day in the City or a creative group party in your workplace, we provide a completely mobile experience for up to 20 people.
All you need to supply is the desk space; we bring the tools, the materials and the inspiration.
A new and original approach to typography and design
Team building with a difference - develop your analogue design skills and get back to basics with ink and paper.
What makes our workshops unique is a creative approach to the use of letterforms in design.
Your team will work with our collection of original Victorian wooden letterpress blocks. Individually or in collaboration your team can create unique hand printed artworks.
- Custom Workplace Signs, Slogans & Manifestos
- Inspirational Quotes & Affirmations
- Graphic Typography Posters
- Creative Visual Imagery
Our extensive Letterpress collection was started in the 1960s by my Father, Graphic Designer Tony Guy ARCA, and I have been adding to it ever since.
Westminster Abbey – Printing History with Antique Letterpress
Set in the breathtaking grounds of this iconic London landmark, I hosted a custom workshop for 25 guests using my treasured collection of vintage wooden printing blocks. To make the session truly unique, I carved bespoke linocut resources inspired by the Abbey’s historic stone facade - including Tudor roses, quatrefoils, and heraldic shields. Guests combined these with letterpress blocks to print their own personalised family crests or a one-of-a-kind souvenir of their visit to the iconic Abbey.

Featured Workshops & Case Studies
Country Living Fair – Fast & Festive 'Spring Flowers' Activation
Fast-paced, high-energy, and full of colour! I hosted four back-to-back 1-hour workshops for 80 attendees, centered on a cheerful 'Spring Flowers' theme. To maximize creative fun within a short window, I pre-printed a base illustration of a jug with a clever overlay flap system. This allowed guests to hand-print carved linocut blooms directly "into" the jug, walking away with a perfectly layered, frame-ready art print in under an hour!
Design Agency, Farringdon – Swapping Screens for Slow Craft
Rolling into a buzzing Farringdon design studio with my trolley packed full of rollers, inks, and antique wooden blocks, we staged the ultimate digital detox! The team pushed their Macs to the back of their desks and got hands-on with analogue design principles. Rolling out ink and playing with tactile, physical typography sparked huge creative energy, proving just how refreshing - and inspiring - it is to step away from the screen and get your hands a little inky.
