The typographer is a craftsman who "composes" letters by hand, the signs that give nobility to beautiful writing! It's also the machine that enabled the very first printers to manually shape the signs (writings) on the pretty, real sheets of paper. At a time when we spend (too) much time on digital tools, Nathalie has opened a stationery shop like we love them, which is the "little sister" of its original Belgian creator! Here you'll find everything you need for correspondence, with a pretty range of cards, but also quality notebooks, notepads, drawings, memos... And of course all types of paper for writing, as well as pencils and other pens to leave messages that last... Located just opposite the Natural History Museum, at Le Typographe, (beautiful) stories are written by hand on quality paper. Nathalie shares with us her passion for the products of her beautiful boutique, and introduces us to her collection of colorful greeting cards and other original versions of thank-you messages! The best thing is to come and see for yourself.... A personalized service is available in the boutique for your business cards, invitations...

Quo Vadis is synonymous with the start of the school year. Her diaries are found in school bags and napkins in France and other European countries. For the general public or for "business gifts", the brand stands out for its creativity and manufacturing quality. It obtained the Origine France guaranteed label for its diaries in October 2013.

History. It was in 1952 that Dr. Francis-Georges Beltrami invented a new concept of time organization for his personal use, allowing him to visualize the week's appointments at a glance on a double page: the Agenda Planing®. Dr. Beltrami made his first diary by stamping the pages of a white notebook with an ink stamp representing the Agenda Planing® grid. The enthusiasm of his acquaintances and friends for his invention prompted Dr. Beltrami to take the plunge and industrialize his invention by creating Quo Vadis Publishing in Marseille. This two-page one-week agenda, structured with hours and action boxes, was the subject of numerous patent applications in France and abroad. In 1957, he created the Quo Vadis workshops for printing, binding and plastic cover manufacturing. A few years later, it was the turn of the "textagenda", now well known to schoolchildren, to be designed for the liberal professions. Quo Vadis also launched the first organizer, and the first diaries and "fancy" leather goods for the start of the school year. In 1999, he joined the paper group Exacompta-Clairefontaine.

The products. Diaries, calendars, organizers, directories, kits and luggage.
