New month...

7 May 04

…new picture. I took this month’s photo while I was in London recently, during my visit to the Vivienne Westwood exhibition at the V&A.

The thing is, there I was in a fantastic exhibition full of important stuff (well, important if you’re even slightly interested in fashion, music, culture or anything at all), and all I could think was “Look! I work for a company that buys tartan from the same company as her!”. So geeky I know…

Speaking of geeky, the V&A logo is one of my favourite ever pieces of typography, done by the late Herb Lubalin. Can anyone find an image of his ‘Mother & Child’ logo anywhere on the web?

Is this what you’re after Alex? Mother & Child

Marvellous! That’s the one, thanks Robin :-) Good isn’t it?

I hereby accuse you of making up names like “Robin” to make others think there are helpful others who read your infrequent gibber.
