Typography









I wish I could say that this work is mine, it is simply beautiful and I love it. It is the work of Super Script a French based Graphic Design studio, I would love to work here it looks amazing, have a look at some more of their work here.
Job

I have finally handed my notice in at my retail job I will miss the people but hopefully I will be onto bigger and better things, I wont miss the sales though and the t-shirts they make us wear, even though I do love the Elton John reference this year and I am still standing just!

Night at The Museum

On Monday night I went to the Natural History Museum in London at night, we got to go around and talk to different specialists at the museum and were allowed to see things that you cant usually see, it was a really great insight into a museum that I love.




SHOW TIME

It has been a crazy week, full of mixed emotions, happy, sad, relieved and excited but now its all over I just wish I could do it all again. The past 3 years have been amazing and the Show in London was a great achievement and here are just a few pics of the wonderful things I did all week.

Fun Without The Sun

Although the sun has been out most of the time, the one evening Darrin and I decided to go the pier it was super foggy, we did have lots of fun on the old 2 penny slots though.




Mailer

I have been designing a new mailer, so wait and see a few have been sent out and a few more to go, here is a sneak preview, the colour was created on a Risograph machine with the lovely help of The Entente.



World Cup Moments

This is an exciting project organised by Pat Bradbury who is interning at YCN, each match is illustrated by a different illustrator and my good friend Alice did the latest one - Netherlands vs Brazil which was such an exciting match, her voodoo dolls explore how the brazillians were doomed from the beginning due to their doll being pinned. To see more of her wonderful work check here

Summer is Here









I feel like Summer is here, it has been sunny basically everyday, I even raided the freezer to find a deeply frozen lolly but it was well worth it. A paddling pool all be it a little small is amazing, not to mention the beach ball that is actually too big to go in the pool. Lots more lovely summer activities to come.... :)
Micah Lidberg

This is one talented guy, check out more of his work here I particularly love all the hand rendered type. This book though called the Rise and Fall is a really great buy. A double sided concertina book with so many lovely images in such vibrant colours and interesting textures not to mention all the wonderful creatures that feature - I love the dinosaurs. the best thing I have bought in ages and it will be sitting on my desk for a very long time.

People Collective


















This is an amazing studio, set up by my good friend Colin Trechter and his very talented friend Aaron Moodie. The work is so beautiful with many stunning hand crafted pieces of type. I really hope that they are highly successful and I have no doubt they will be! Good luck!
