Letterpress printing was one of China ’s four major inventions and helped to promote the spread of culture and knowledge. Sadly, this old craft has gradually fallen into decline in recent years. To continue the tradition, architecture graduate Yan Hong-lin transformed the traditional large-scale press into a miniature device so that ordinary people could experience the joy of press printing.
Yan Hong-lin’s printing shop holds innovative hands-on activities and courses to ensure the continuation of traditional arts and crafts. It has also established a printing company in Taipei’s arts district, Dadaocheng, connecting the paper industry with the local industry and bringing people closer to this traditional craft.

致力於延續傳統老工藝,印刷行經常舉辦體驗活動、課程,讓逐漸沒落的傳統藝術用創新的方式延續下去,並於大稻埕創立印刷行,讓紙業和在地產業多了連結,也讓民眾更貼近這項傳統藝術。
