This is a list of the posts which reside within the ‘category’ you have chosen. I'm trying to limit myself to few categories, so that there is a greater potential for the cross-pollination of disciplines, ideas, media. For greater specificity, try the tags.

  • The Pipe of Communism

    My dad saw this at the Estorick gallery on Friday, and took a photo with his mobile phone. I love the design- a really simple image, in all my favourite colours. The smoke motif masking a collage of photos with its trim of curved text is an inspiration. I love the simplicity of the image, [...]

  • More Wet Letters

    So you remember this? Well it looks like somebody already devoted a whole load of time to developing the idea- Katja Schloz was a winner in the Type Directors Club 29th annual.

  • Often I Say Offen

    Is this a poem? I have no idea. I don’t even know what it means. We found it when Victoria was going through the box which used to be behind Harry but is now a cupboard and contains the same stuff in a better way except for this which I don’t remember writing but must [...]

Colophon

This site uses Wordpress, is set in Hoefler Text & Helvetica Neue, was built on a Mac, and prefers Firefox. I'm still testing in other browsers- help by letting me know if you have any display issues.
