Parabo Press Turns Your iPhone Snaps Into Works of Art

Parabo Press Turns Your iPhone Snaps Into Works of Art

By

The only thing worse than bare walls are those bland, mass-produced prints we picked up at Bed, Bath & Beyond back in college. They're not that bad, we thought. But we were wrong. Now there's an affordable solution to our need for original art that's actually cool. It's called Parabo Press. 


A free lifestyle app for neophyte photographers, from the team behind online gear store Photojojo, San Francisco–based Parabo Press turns our everyday iPhone snaps into art (think square prints, posters, zines, hardcover books, and human-sized engineer prints) that we're not embarrassed to display in our homes and offices. The materials are all high quality and the prices are right for our SF budgets—all of Parabo's products, except for the books, are under $50.

Same goes for what might be Parabo's most unique offering: colorful risograph prints, made with a silk-screen printing method that originated in 1980s Japan. The style has garnered something of a cult following over the years, but hasn't been widely accessible until now.

To make matters even simpler, Parabo is a one-stop shop for hanging materials as well. Ready your cameras. And, action!  //  Parabo Press, parabo.press
