It’s Hammerpress, just down the block… and a whole lot cooler. If you remember the old location then you remember how cramped it was and how hard it was to look through merchandise if there were than five people inside. This new location has plenty of room. In fact, there’s so much room the store is able to aptly showcase allow of its wares from the cards to the posters to books and more. It’s almost like a modern minimalist feel and it works. My favorite thing about the new space is a spot where you can stand and look through a pane of glass while in the next room the presses are working to print new pieces. Very cool. Please come and visit. I think you’ll enjoy your stay.

Hammerpress is a KC institution, and a Crossroads Arts District anchor. Their new space is a perfect evolution of their brand and service, and everyone should check it out! Nestled in the lower floor of a rescued Mid-Century office building just a little further south of their old location, Hammerpress’ new showroom looks almost 3 times as large as their prior offering. What I particularly appreciate is that the rustic aesthetic of their products and offerings is a nice juxtaposition to the Mid-Century Modern cleanliness of design the building has. Both of which continue Hammerpress’ own technique of layering historical textures into their brand. I’m looking forward to what else they cook up down there in their new place, and continue growing as a Kansas City landmark, both in location and style!
