Elevating Design Through Paper: Mohawk x Print Design Academy
Design isn’t just about what you see—it’s about what you feel.
The Mohawk Superfine sample highlights all three whites: White, Softwhite, and Ultrawhite. Placed side by side, these subtle variations reveal how the warmth or coolness of a white sheet can transform the mood of artwork. Superfine has long been synonymous with luxury, offering designers a canvas that inspires timeless, elegant creations.
In contrast, the Mohawk Via sample demonstrates the power of color and texture. Featuring natural, rough, satin, and recycled papers, Via illustrates how tactile qualities and color can shape storytelling. Designers quickly see how each surface adds depth, character, and emotion to their work. With Via, value and versatility meet uncompromising quality, making it a trusted choice for projects that demand both creativity and practicality.

Production Notes
Offset Printing
A commonly used printing technique in which the inked image is transferred from a plate to a rubber blanket, then to the printing surface. When used in combination with the lithographic process, which is based on the repulsion of oil and water, the offset technique employs a flat (planographic) image carrier on which the image to be printed obtains ink from ink rollers, while the non-printing area attracts a water-based film (called "fountain solution"), keeping the non-printing areas ink-free.
