All Stereohype button badges available at stereohype.com are classic, high-quality, one-inch (25 mm) metal-back badges with a so-called D-pin fastening. Small stickers on the reverse provide details such as the artist’s name, release date and series number. This growing collection of mobile mini canvases includes more than 1,700 individual designs by over 650 graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and artists from around the world. It brings together all contributions to the FL@33 / Tomi Vollauschek-curated B.I.O. (By Invitation Only) series, winners of Stereohype’s international open-call button badge design competition, and additional collections including the special collaborations, AFOMFS Series, MICA Series, 10×10 Series and Emoji Series. All badges are manufactured in Europe.
