It's that time of the year...



when final year students finally say goodbye to university life and face the future, scary, I know, but also exciting. And before they say goodbye they put together their Degree Show to let the world know they are coming out and that they are full of ideas... so I went to see some of those ideas at GSA. And it was fairly mixed as usual but there was some really good work and worth checking out if you are in Glasgow. I particularly liked the work of Sissel Johannsen (sorry no image!) and Elain Eckford (above, no website yet). The above image has been taken from a class portfolio in the form of a newspaper so it definitely does it no justice. Didn't have my camera with me, damn!

Studio Feed




Reading through The Serif I came across Studio Feed from Montréal. Their work is elegant and smart with as they say "an indestructible passion for typography"... what's not to like?
