FIELD NOTES - XOXO 2018 - Special Edition

Since the fantastic Portland design conference XOXO started, Field Notes have been producing small, custom runs of their Memo Books for attendees to go along with the visual theme of each year’s event. After taking a year off, XOXO returned for 2018, bigger and more awesome than ever. The conference worked with the unstoppable Shawna X this year, so of course, Field Notes did too. The results are beautiful, featuring three covers, each a bright explosion of colour and form.
