Extraordinary Design

Honoured to have my artwork for Hatton Cross underground station included in the London Transport Museum’s Art Deco poster exhibition. Fabulous PV last night including cocktails which I felt duty-bound to sample!
A snapshot of my 40 metre window artwork hangs alongside posters from design greats such as Edward McKnight Kauffer, Dora Batty, Jean Dupas and Munetsugu Satomi in the Global Poster Gallery. You can also see renowned architect Charles Holden’s stations, with sculptures on buildings by Henry Moore and Eric Aumonier as well as the glass car mascot known as Victoire by Rene Lalique.
Such a treat! Highly recommend this fabulous exhibition curated by Georgia Morley

Highly recommend the exhibition.

My design paid hommage to Tom Eckersley’s Concord Tailfin mural at Heathrow Airport. His original artwork is on display here too.

Eckersley is one of the best known mid-century graphic designers who designed numerous posters for London Underground. He developed a style that emphasised geometric forms, flat graphic designs emphasising shape rather than depth of perspective, and a strong use of contrast by varying the size of elements, or using stark lines and shadowing with gradients. Eckersley’s style was similar in its approach to Modernist graphic designers in France and Germany during the same period.
