I went to Saltaire yesterday - partly for a break from the city for a couple of hours and partly to see the Hockney gallery again as I haven't been this year. Typically I spent more time in the amazing shop than anywhere else photographing things that I can't afford to buy and things that I just liked.
I absolutely love this typographic book cover. I think that the ribbon works really well as a guide - directing your eye down the cover.
A lot of the work I looked at will be really helpful for my research for both my type brief and my Fedrigoni brief....
I plan to make my own christmas cards this year and these designs I especially like. I plan to screen print my cards - partly to keep costs as low as possible but also for the aesthetic of hand made. What I particularly like about these cards are the colour choices - especially the orange and blue snowman and the green and pink/red ones. I like that they are slightly less obviously festive colours such as red green gold etc.
Massive sandwich I ate later that day.....
woah
