Ordinary Stationery™ Bronze Award European Design Awards Our first series of assorted stationery includes A4, A5 and A6 notepads, spiral notebooks, ring binders and CD sleeves. The idea was to create a series of stationery that would be ultra easy to use and very simply designed. So we came up with the brand name “Ordinary Stationery” and tried to bring to life exactly that: Sketchbooks, envelopes, cd sleeves, folders, notepads without unnecessary design trends, that would do their “job”. So Helvetica was used for the type as a quality font, yet quite common and pure colors were used for the covers so that they could meet most people’s aesthetics. Notebooks and pads are made of 90gsm environment-friendly paper, gridded, ruled or blank. Covers are colour-coded accordingly. The Ordinary Stationery™ range received the Bronze award in the Miscellaneous Printed Category of the 2009 European Design Awards. http://www.europeandesign.org/submissions/ordinary-stationary/

It was also usedfor its cosmetic and medical medicinal properties advocated by Hippocrates, the father of medicine.
