The Jolly Type K Matte Art Print


Choose Your Print Size

Move over boring type(s), it’s time for The Jolly Type.

26 Google-eyed letters (and an ampersand), each of them unique in character.

Set against smooth pastel cotton candy like backgrounds, these are perfect for spelling out names or words to form a centrepiece, or pick your favourite letter and mix it into a more traditional gallery wall to add a bit of humour and jolliness!

…and don’t get me started how much fun these will be in any nursery!

These letter prints are available in sizes from A4 – A0. If you decide to spell a word, or write your initials, you can get every third letter free!

Warm golden amber, deep crimson red, soft blush pink, and a creamy off-white sit at the heart of this print, with a bright golden yellow glowing at the centre – a palette that runs entirely warm, with rich jewel undertones anchoring the lighter tones. Those warm yellows and ambers make it a natural companion to walls in deep mustard, burnt ochre, or a soft terracotta, working on an analogous basis with the golden hues already present in the letter’s glow. For contrast, a wall in deep forest green or a muted olive picks up the complementary relationship to the crimson, letting the red really sing. If a neutral is preferred, choose a warm greige or an off-white with a definite yellow or peachy undertone – cool greys will fight the palette rather than rest alongside it. The subject matter – a googly-eyed K brimming with character and barely contained mischief – suits a playroom, a child’s bedroom, or a home office that refuses to take itself too seriously. It also works in a kitchen or a creative studio where wit is part of the brief. Style-wise, think maximalist, retro-pop, eclectic, or bold contemporary – this print has no interest in blending in. It belongs to The Jolly Type collection, a set of 26 google-eyed letters (and an ampersand), each unique in character, built on the premise that boring type had its moment and that moment is over; grouped together, several prints from the collection make a genuinely joyful gallery wall. It would make a brilliant gift for a designer, a typographer, or anyone whose name begins with K.

Printed with archival pigment inks on Enhanced Matte art paper – a smooth, gallery-grade stock with a soft, glare-free surface – the finish earns a museum-grade standard without the reflective sheen that makes busy, colourful images hard to read across a room. The matte surface sits as well in a slim black or natural oak frame as it does in a more ornate gilded one, and the absence of glare is particularly useful in well-lit rooms. At A4 (21 × 29.7 cm) or A3 (29.7 × 42 cm), the print is ideal propped on a shelf or slotted into a gallery wall arrangement. An A2 (42 × 59.4 cm) holds its own as a standalone piece above a desk or beside a doorway, while A1 (59.4 × 84.1 cm) makes a confident statement on a larger wall. At A0 (84.1 × 118.9 cm), the print is room-defining – the personality of the letter fills the space entirely. This print is also available as a 28 × 40 inch (70 × 100 cm) canvas, ready to hang with no frame needed.
