Just in time for Christmas – we are super-excited to announce the launch of a new Stereohype range of Fine Art Giclée Print edition called Button Badge Motif Prints featuring the first 18 artworks selected from Stereohype's widely-acclaimed button badge collection – 14 of them from B.I.O. Series 16 that was also just released. The already 1244-strong button badge collection features artworks by over 350 illustrators, designer, photographers and artists from around the world.

One inch button badge motifs were blown up to seven inch and printed on beautifully textured, archival Hahnemühle paper (310gsm, 8" x 10" / 203mm x 254mm, embossed certification seal).
