Bread and Butterflies - This blog remains the homepage/hub of all my blogs, as well as acting as an area that I use for posting stuff that doesn't relate directly to my design work.
I have fallen head over heels for this packaging. I love the mix of bold colours, very simple type and sparse design which portrays something so quintessentially british that I want to star waving a union flag or screaming about The Beatles. As practically every user on the packaging blog I found these one pointed out - 'the text looks like London Underground type' - yes I agree (though it didn't take 20 post saying that, to make you realise it). I managed to find the typeface that was designed for the London Underground, but sadly it is very expensive to buy, lucky for me I found a very similar font that looks practically the same, and I am hoping will come in handy when I get the chance to design something properly British (because at heart, I really do love our monarchy and red buses).
Hi, I'm a Graphic Designer, just graduated from Leeds College of Art and now looking to start life in the real world. Currently living in Harpenden, Hertfordshire and looking for a job of some description. This blog is the result of three years of forced, but quite enjoyable blogging about my work. Expect to find general ramblings, links to great design and the odd muffin recipe.
