Snake River Press

A brand I found that blends traditional English imagery and art styles with a clean and modern aesthetic is Snake River Press, an independent publishing company from Sussex. Their book covers incorporate the lino/woodcut artwork I've been looking at, but also bring in brighter colours and clean type using Gill Sans. The juxtaposition of old and modern really works for me as it seems to cast the traditional elements in a more nostalgic and heart-warming way.
