Swimming Through Leaves
A Print Imprint

At the intersection of the Dave Kirkwood Studio and Design Lab North lies Swimming Through Leaves, a print imprint that serves as the publishing arm of Various Titles. This imprint produces a range of broadcasts, books, prints and printed ephemera that encapsulate the experimental and intellectual work emerging from the studio and lab. Each publication is a crafted artifact, designed to distill the creative and theoretical explorations of these spaces into tangible, printed forms. The output of Swimming Through Leaves offers an ongoing chronicle of creative thought, bridging the gap between the conceptual and the material, the artistic and the intellectual.

These printed items are more than mere documents; they are curated experiences in themselves, often produced in limited editions that reflect the meticulous design principles championed by Design Lab North. Through its publications, Swimming Through Leaves contributes to the ongoing discourse in contemporary art and design, offering a reflective space where the ideas explored within Various Titles are shared with a broader intellectual community.
