Giclée Printing
We offer in-house giclée printing at Form Shop & Studio in A4, A3 and A2 sizes, with prices starting from £4.50. We do not have scanning facilities here.
What is giclée printing?
Giclée (pronouned "jee-clay") prints are fine-art quality prints from an inkjet printer using pigment-based archival quality inks. This means your prints will last well over 100 years, and a lot longer than digital prints. More detail can be found on our giclee printing blog post here.
Our prices are
A4 (min. order quantity 2) - £4.50 per print
A3 - £8.5 per print
A2 - £16 per print (collection only)
We print on 285gsm fine art paper.
Ordering:
If it’s your first time ordering prints, please fill out our print order form here (download here) and email to us along with with artwork at 300dpi or higher jpeg/pdf at A4 or A3 size with no bleed/crop marks and let us know if you’d like it posted or collected from the shop. Email to joseph@heyform.co.uk
We’ll then send you a payment link to use, after which you’ll get a notification when your prints are ready to collect/post.
For future orders we have a link on the website we will share so you can order online to make this quicker and easier. We just prefer people’s first order is done by email to make sure they’re happy setting up artwork correctly etc.
Turnaround
Please note while we are open 7 days a week, Joe is off Tue/Wed so may not always respond on these days. While we can often be quick if orders are placed on the printing day, please expect 2-3 days for turnaround. Note, as not all of us have print access, orders placed on Tue/Wed are usually printed on Thursday. Larger orders (30+) may take longer - drop us a message if you’re unsure.
Artwork
Artwork should be print ready at the desired size. Any required artworking/tidying up can be done but is charged at £30 per hour (charged in 15min blocks) - we'll let you know if this is required when artwork is submitted though so you can choose if you need/want it.
