Wynwood Letterpress to Open in Wynwood With Miami-Inspired Paper Goods

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

Miami has been in dire need of a proper stationery and card shop for years now (sorry, Hallmark), and now every postage-lover's dream has come true. Wynwood Letterpress is set to open inside the recently finished Wynwood Block complex, and March 30th is the lucky date.

Don't expect to find odes to New York or love notes from L.A. Instead, Wynwood Letterpress makes custom Miami stationery, like insanely cute cartoons of the Raleigh Hotel or St. Patty's Day cards that say "Yo, Bro," because how else do natives greet each other here?

Expect to also find goods from Rifle Paper Co., Shinola, and more authentic, artisan-produced brands. Plus, you can work with them to customize any type of paper good, from foil stamping to envelope lining, and calligraphy to custom illustration, whether its for a wedding or you just want to send someone something nice on a Tuesday. Also expect to find do-it-yourself workshops and classes. The first will be a calligraphy class headed by Leila Farah, who's donated her talents to Louis Vuitton previously.

We don't know about you, but we're holding out for our paper invite while they finish building out the store.

T-Minus just a few weeks until opening! For now, deflated balloons and pretty tassels as an installation. When in Rome/Wynwood, right?
