A couple of delayed things on the blog today. Firstly i saw this wonderful film By fellow Falmouth graduate and all round lovely guy Temujin Doran a little while ago. and meant to post it then. Better late than never. Brilliant music too. well done Tem.



Secondly just wanted to give an over due shout out to Hugh of Landfill Editions and Many Mono, its printing arm. He has done an awesome job of some Risograph  printing for us recently and even popped by the studio for a nuice chat and to hook us up with some killer prints from Landfills first collection.

DROP CITY

Listening to: The get up kids



On a massive research tip today, all about Buckminster Fuller,  for a project that will hopefully become apparent late next week. I stumbled upon the the artist community 'drop city' based in colarado from 1965 to the early '70's.
The Droppers’ vision of life-as-art was evidenced in their iconographic dwellings, which were based on geodesic domes and the crystalline designs of Steve Baer, a pioneer in fractal geometric designs and solar energy. The Droppers were opposed to work-for-pay and used salvaged materials, including culled lumber and chopped-out car tops.  In 1966, Buckminster Fuller honored Drop City with his Dymaxion Award for“poetically economic structural accomplishments."

Read more about it here. Or better, watch this trailer and give these people more money to make the documentary about the place.

PERCIVAL




Chris has been working his socks off with Telegrammes good friend Luke, on a mens clothing label named PERCIVAL. Telegramme has obviously taken on all the graphics and visual direction. From branding, website, launch party invites etc etc. Name it and we are designing. Under a week away from alaunch im super excited so wanted to share a couple of images. sneeky peeks of the direction.
