As Pacific Plug & Liner gears up for the sunshine and warmth of 2014 California Spring Trials, BatesMeron is here in chilly Chicago sketching up a storm and bringing hand-rendered typography to life.
Why you ask? Because we’ve been inspired by the colors of California and the Eden of PP&L’s plant inventory. Put that together and you get the beautiful, vintage-inspired and intricately detailed sketches shown below.
