About Sketchbook Design
Sketchbook Design, based in Manchester, was founded in 2015 by artist Michael Wylie with the aim to create hand-drawn typography art prints for your home. While our artistic style develops and changes we always stay true to traditional methods of hand-producing our artwork. We take pleasure in the idiosyncrasies of hand-made art, the little human touches that give artwork personality and uniqueness.
At Sketchbook Design we strive to produce engaging artwork that is often inspired by popular culture. Many of our typography art prints encourage you to reminisce and add your own personal memories to our artwork. We are inspired by people, places and the relationships that we have with our own culture, be it music, sport or our home city.
We create contemporary typography art prints in a range of styles, colours and sizes to ensure that you can find the right artwork for your home, office or business.
We sell our artwork in the form of art prints, greetings cards and t-shirts. We ship our typography art prints and gifts worldwide and offer free UK delivery on all of our orders. We also produce personalised artwork to commemorate birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, or any landmark occasion.
At Sketchbook Design we also produce original unique large scale typography wall murals for businesses across the country. We work with companies to develop and paint bespoke artwork that will transform any commercial space. We work closely with our clients to ensure that our wall mural artwork communicates or complements their company ethos.
