LDF 25: Official Stationery Partner

We are pleased to announce our continued collaboration with the London Design Festival as the official stationery partner for 2025.

Working with LDF's creative director, Pentagram partner Domenic Lippa, we have reimagined our signature Yuzu Dot Grid Notebook to embody this year’s festival identity.

Last year, for the first time, we sold 100 limited-edition notebooks to raise funds for emerging designers through the LDF Launch Pad initiative. In line with its commitment to inclusivity and accessibility, the LDF aims to elevate designers who typically face barriers to accessing the Festival's partnership scheme. For LDF 25’ Pith® are supporting Alexandra Gerber, Livia Lauber and Prima Materia.

For 2025, a limited number will be available for purchase online, with all proceeds supporting emerging designers through the LDF Launch Pad Initiative for the next edition of the festival in 2026.

Since 2007, Domenic Lippa and his team at Pentagram have produced the visual language for each iteration of the Festival - responding to and anticipating trends in design and typology.

’We approach each edition with excitement and enthusiasm. I have always believed we've been able to create new directions for the Festival because different designers have contributed to the process over the years,’ Lippa says.

The London Design Festival logo was screen-printed in white onto Pith® red cover board, then debossed with the 'London Design Festival’ graphic created by Domenic Lippa and the team at Pentagram.

The covers were then applied by hand to our signature Dot Grid Yuzu notebooks before guillotine trimming. Each book is then wrapped in a custom banderole and signed by its maker.

A special thank you to the team at the London Design Festival, Domenic Lippa, Edie Lippa and everyone at Pentagram + the Pith production team.

For the 23rd edition of the London Design Festival, Pith® has collaborated with Marina Willer on a series of artworks in Pith® Sketchbooks. The exhibition ‘Sketching with Stickers’ will be on display at the Design Museum from September 13 to 21, 2025.
