feeling at home

I was back home in the UK for a few days this weekend, as you can see I was made to feel welcome… I actually even used to live in Martin (really)

reza

for the second time in a month a foreign graphic designer has been awarded an important cultural prize in the netherlands, the iranian reza abedini opened his show today and I met him briefly this afternoon, he makes beautiful posters, unfortunately most of them can only be seen as projections there, the site is worth a visit

judge a book by it’s cover

I’ve been invited for the ADCN awards graphic design jury, there’s a dinner tonight to meet the jury and discuss everything,

I’ve been in several juries before but it’s always interesting to see a year’s worth of work all together… it’s also a shame that a lot of work is always missing because some people don’t enter…
