Funky Print Studio is a family-owned and operated letterpress and hot foil printing atelier based in Bucharest, Romania.
Our studio was born after careful consideration, out of love for printing, card stock and paper, colors and art.
Our love for paper and card stock goes a long way back having over 10 years working experience in this field. We started our independent activity in 2013 when we decided to offer our skills and services in die cutting. We make and sell card stock boxes of all shapes and sizes, gift tags, coasters, envelopes and other various die cuts.
Soon enough we branched out and started letterpress and hot foil printing. We print stationery, wedding invitations, baby shower invitations and various events cards.
We letterpress print on an Original Heidelberg Platen windmill from circa 1960, die cut and hot foil print on a vintage Russian die cutting machine, use a Schimanek guillotine for paper cutting and a Pescha hole punching machine. We do our very best to revive antique machinery and printing processes in order to create impressive details that will be treasured for a long time.
