What does it take for me—or anyone who commissions or buys design and illustration—to actually open a physical snail mail envelope these days? It either has to have gravitas or energy. This envelope and the tags that came inside (yes, and the postage stamps too) got me to give it more than a passing glance. Their creator is the Slovanian designer Eduard Cehovin, who teaches at both the Academy of Fine Arts and the Ljubljana University, and is a veteran absurdist; he uses graphic means to make grabbing experiences like this street (literally) art Zebra project.
