ArtPapel
Somos Giuliano y Alicia y en el 2007 hemos creado ArtPapel, una empresa que se dedica al libro como objeto, desde la encuadernación artesanal y artística hasta la restauración de libros y documentos. En 2011 llegados a nuestros primeros cincos años de actividad decidimos abrir en en centro de Santander, en la Calle San José 16, nuestra primera tienda taller......
Desde el 2011 hemos creado Tipo Gráfica Mente nuestro Printing Studio, con el deseo de poder experimentar con la composición manual y la edición tipográfica artesanal. Nos gustan los bellos libros, los papeles decorados, las encuadernaciones antiguas, nos gusta hacer que nuestro trabajo sea creativo.
