about us

Shorthand Press creates tools for productivity and creativity - notebooks and office supplies that strike a balance between being functional and aesthetically pleasing. Our products are designed with a high attention to detail - they are meant to be USED for ideas, brainstorms, sketches, lists and fun.

Greeting cards are also our passion, and what jumpstarted our line in 2010. We love coming up with sweet and funny sentiments for all the occasions life throws your way.

Rosanna and Ariel design, test, prototype and illustrate all the products in our line. Nick is our master printer, taking our ideas and turning them into stunning works of useable art. Molly is our wholesale coordinator, making sure that all orders ship smoothly and efficiently and that stores are stocked with what they need. We have small team of notebook makers and card folders who work in our shop creating products every day to meet our high production standards. We love what we do!

Shorthand Press began in 2008 under the name Iron Curtain Press. We consolidated our name with our retail store, Shorthand, in 2022, but our commitment to high quality, beautiful, useful products remains unchanged!
