About Lithographic Offset Printing
Lithographic Offset printing is a technique in which the inked image is transferred, or "offset", from a plate to a rubber surface and 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.
Made in Halifax, Nova Scotia

Alex MacAskill opened Midnight Oil Print and Design House in 2017, and is located in the heart of Halifax's North End community. Midnight Oil offers a wide range of graphic design and illustration services, letterpress, giclée, and screen printing. "Print and design are artforms after all, and when treated and embraced as such the results are nothing short of art."
Alex started printing and designing 10 years ago they way many printers get started, creating posters and shirts for his grade school band. The interest developed from there, and he went on to receive a Bachelor of Fine Art from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design.
