Tonight I had the pleasure of attending the Symbol talk, by Angus Hyland (of Pentagram) at the Design Museum. Angus is a fantastic presenter and I really enjoyed the talk, although did get a little carried away doing my own versions of the logo in my sketchnote. The talk was in conjunction with Angus’s book, also called Symbol, which has just been released. Looks absolutely amazing and am very tempted to get a copy!

Awhile back I attended the Design of Understanding at the St Bride Library. The conference focuses on how the design of ideas can make them more understandable. The conference organiser made a very good choice as St Bride is one of the world’s best printing and graphic arts library. 

Unfortunately, the St Bride Foundation struggles to maintain funding and support, so I signed up to become a Friend of St Bride. All friends receive a copy of Ultrabold, the journal of St Bride Library. If you are anyway interested in Graphic Design, then it’s worth getting your hands on a copy.
