New offices for Chapman Taylor

I've been working on the graphics for Chapman Taylor's new offices in Paddington, London. Today was install day, very exciting! Here's some snapshots of everything going in... New offices open next week!

Mary Portas

The lovely Mary Portas shooting in Broadway Market, chatting to locals. Love her work! www.maryportas.com

My work on the high street

Saw some of my work for The Body Shop while walking past one of their stores in West London. Always good to see your work in action!

Mildred's is marvellous

Lunch at Mildred's in Soho. Curry laksa – yum! 

All vegetarian, all the time.

Russian optical patterns

Loving the work of this Russian graphic designer at the moment, Yegor Legkov. I had seen his Tour de France illustration before and stumbled across his work again recently. Makes me think of a modern M.C. Escher. From leg-kov.jimdo.com

Summer skies

I lied on my blanket looking up at this beautiful view; the leafy patterns in the sky.

Patriot cupcakes!

Spied these lovely cupcakes in the window of a little cupcake shop in Covent Garden the other day and thought it was very sweet... Yum!

Into the WILDerness...

Much like the beautiful film, Into the Wild, I felt a bit like an adventurer in the the beautiful English countryside of Oxfordshire recently at Wilderness festival. Beautiful weather, lakes, music, food, drink... what more could you ask for of this small (by English standards) festival?

Tickets are now on sale for next year: www.wildernessfestival.com/

Typography tricks

Some really cool work here by Kasper Florio, design duo. I love the way they have morphed the type to make it look like it's all crumpled and blurred. Clever.

Messages on the tube...

Don't you love it when people write messages to themselves on their hands!? (We all do it, so just admit it!)

Caught this guy on the Central line with his hand pressed up against a barrier... Had to capture it!
