We have been busy bees over the last few months.
Finally, we have managed to find some time to upload all the recent projects on our site. Check out the Design Products Collection identity, Global Fellowship Journal, V&A Summer Camp programme, and recent Forum for the Future reports. We also completed a great schools newsletter for Actionaid, a report for The Tijuca Project in Brazil and last but by no means least, 2012 Velodrome sketchbooks for Expedition.

We’re excited to be involved in branding the first selection of products from the newly formed Design Products Collection.
Working with Tord Boontje and Gareth Williams from the RCA we have created an identity that combines refined graphics (allowing the products to take centre stage) with commissioned poetry (inspired by the individuality of the products).

To find out more about the products visit the Royal College of Art exhibition (23 September – 7 October) or go to design products collection.

Our stationery is being showcased in an exhibition on new ideas and research on plant based materials. The tunnel entrance to the museum has been converted into a living greenhouse, inviting visitors to consider the relationship between design and the natural world.
Innovation Greenhouse is a project curated by Kingston University in partnership with the Design Museum and staged as part of the London Design Festival at the V&A (The London Design Festival runs from the 18–26th of September).

ATL launch their pre-election manifesto
We are excited to be helping to take the debate from the staffroom to Parliament – designing the campaign and raising the voice of teachers and lecturers above the party politics of education.

The Useful Simple Trust launched with a big party at the Village Underground last Thursday. The great and the good came together under a large domed light to help us celebrate and hear more about the venture.
We created a series of limited edition prints based around the usefulness of a simple orange bowl. Members of the studio were invited to contribute by either illustrating, screenprinting or letterpressing on top of the bowl image to create something amazing.
