Made In Earnest

I am proud and honoured to stay I have a selection of The Jazz Meet posters on sale at the moment at a pop-up shop in Manchester. The Manchester Modernist Society, publishers of the modernist magazine, have launched a modernist pop-up shop at 142 Chapel Street, Salford M3 6AF (close to Salford central Station and the Kings […]

One of my regular clients, Acland Burghley School, has an annual Dance Show for which I do the invite and the poster. This year’s title is Burghley In Motion and the show takes place at the end of January at the Bloomsbury Theatre.

It is something I eagerly await because it is simply one of the best pieces of design, year-in-year-out. What is it? It is the Feltron Annual Report. Something I know I wouldn’t have the patience to do myself while simultaneously wanting to be able to say ‘I did this.’ However, I can’t say that, so […]
