Hi!
2019 marks the year Stereohype will be celebrating its 15th anniversary. To mark this milestone we decided to shift gear and up our game by introducing a new sophisticated way to package our beautiful button badge collection.
Until now we used to stick badge orders to postcards but customers will from now on receive their badge orders in super-elegant machbox-style gift boxes that we have just produced in various sizes.
Sets of 3 and 4 are now available in this superb packaging that features a foil-blocked hand-printed Stereohype mascot squirrel in fancy rose-gold. Our existing Gift Boxes: 7 button badges are also still available.
We also just launched this year's call for entries and are now welcoming submissions to Stereohype's 15th annual Button Badge Design Competition. Previous winners, usual suspects and other Stereohype contributors who want to be part of the jury please do email us.
Below we show more pictures, talk about everything in more detail and share other news including that time we were featured in VO:A – Vaughan Oliver's beautiful Archive tome by Unit Editions.

Beautiful new FL@33-designed packaging
***
Our new matchbox-style gift boxes come in three sizes. The smallest is for 1–5 button badges and our sets of three, four and five are now available in such a beautiful gift box. Orders of individual badge designs will automatically be pinned by us into one of the three gift boxes. The medium size is used for button badge quantities from 6–16 while the largest gift box can hold up to 25 badges.
Curently we 'only' transformed our sets into these new gift boxes. They are now called Artist Gift Boxes: 3–5 button badges. In the future we will also introduce Themed Gift Boxes: 3–5 button badges featuring more than one artist in one gift box. Four different dogs or cats for example created by various artists...
Our existing Gift Boxes: 7 button badges have now also been differentiated accordingly. There are now 29 Themed and 29 Artist ones of those...

We are over the moon that our Stereohype 10th anniversary poster collaboration with Vaughan Oliver made the cut and is prominently featured in the amazing and truly beautiful Unit Editions publication Vaughan Oliver: Archive (two volumes in slipcase).
We (as FL@33 and Stereohype) had the pleasure to collaborate with this design hero of ours at numerous occasions including the time Vaughan created some badges for Stereohype, a commissioned card for our FL@33 Postcard book and contributions for FL@33's The 3D Type Book.
See everything Vaughan Oliver we have to offer at Stereohype here.
