Another daunting task ahead! This room holds a few people! Yesterday I was the second speaker on the first day of the Typo Berlin Conference. The building is amazing the Haus der kulturn der Welt, designed in 1957 by the American architect Hugh Stubbins Jr. as part of the Interbau exhibition. Feel very proud to have spoken in such a handsome building in the middle of a beautiful park. It reminds me of another building I am working on at the moment.

Floors rather than walls. Guy Noble the UCLH Trust curator and I worked together on the art strategy for the new Macmillan Cancer building in London, designed by Hopkins Architects. There were not many clear walls to apply art to in the central spaces, the building has been designed to be very open and welcoming. Each landing had a waiting area and so why not put the art on the floor. So then we put a brief together titled ‘Things that make you think about other things’. We were so pleased the artists we asked agreed and these are the results. Each shape is lazer cut out of linoleum using colour range existing.

Today I went to see the rugs I designed for the new UCLH Macmillan Cancer building, London. Part of a series of rugs I co-curated with Guy Noble. My artwork was submitted for production last August and so it has been a long wait to see the final pieces. I will post the other rugs over the next few days by Peter Blake, Grayson Perry, Pure Evil and Rob Ryan. Plus a huge installation by Stuart Henderson being installed over the next few weeks.

The proof of my Page 1 for the book — Page 1: Great Expectations curated by GraphicDesign& — Seventy Graphic Solutions — book available now.
For my Page1 — I wanted to conduct an experiment to see how the reader/listener would understand the text if the words were arranged in columns, in which multiple words were grouped together and where all punctuation was removed. The words are listed in the order they appear, with multiples shown under the word’s first appearance. There are 278 words in this piece of text and 166 are unique. The font used is Typewriter Condensed.
Then I read the original and my version out loud. The former obviously flows as intended, while in comparison my staccato version encourages the reader to experiment with emphasis, allowing different interpretations of the piece.
