One of my typefaces has been chosen to feature on it. My glyph is the big B in the top left corner. The glyph is taken from one of my craziest fonts called 'convention' which I designed three years ago.

It was a great and almost unbelievable experience to meet and chat with the world famous typographer Erik Spiekermann! It was great to join the society, meet other like minded designers, and see all of their really top notch work! My tutor <a href="http://www.typenowhere.com">John Paul Downling</a> also received two awards for his brilliant teaching!joeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575646329456343719.post-72717609183527505462011-06-19T16:24:00.000-07:002011-06-23T09:37:39.242-07:00DAA PublicationAlongside my final uni projects I have worked on a publication for the Drawing and Applied Arts degree course at UWE. Working with two friends; <a href="http://www.thomaseves.co.uk">Tom</a> and <a href="http://www.jamessomerfield.co.uk">James</a>, we have produced a publication that documents the working process of each student on the course. We chose to base the publication around their working process in order to further sell themselves to visitors of the degree show. The visitors of the exhibition can then learn more about the student, from the final finished pieces that are on display in of them. The publication also contains a visitors map and poster of the exhibition that can guide the visitor to the work of each student.<br /><br />The catalogues went down a storm and we have received brilliant feedback from many visitors and students of the course!<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTzp7eiqsnMdd0NPELbtbi6uUCd0fqY04az1Rw8u_quozoBaOCmDze2gDrxyZgyYzeHOUzgn_PvAP5s6SQQzCncGXFZ99EhfTs-vvASafX_1Jvk5p5lLmuX64MpAomissg2Ri_WPYBfaNT/s1600/_DSC0131.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTzp7eiqsnMdd0NPELbtbi6uUCd0fqY04az1Rw8u_quozoBaOCmDze2gDrxyZgyYzeHOUzgn_PvAP5s6SQQzCncGXFZ99EhfTs-vvASafX_1Jvk5p5lLmuX64MpAomissg2Ri_WPYBfaNT/s400/_DSC0131.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620452942728977986" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtnN3Ih-_lQZ26Jy1J0Jelg-xvIqiGBaLo61J9Nsd751ISVi3NeU95zyvPLi7DLvfCvI4V8hvAMXBnDtuQ2YUiocvC6cGqTqRxK9P6i1OGRvpJw_cruTjslQRI-6kq4VUL9iZ7ezLkrNJe/s1600/_DSC0123.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtnN3Ih-_lQZ26Jy1J0Jelg-xvIqiGBaLo61J9Nsd751ISVi3NeU95zyvPLi7DLvfCvI4V8hvAMXBnDtuQ2YUiocvC6cGqTqRxK9P6i1OGRvpJw_cruTjslQRI-6kq4VUL9iZ7ezLkrNJe/s400/_DSC0123.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620447319778573922" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrG_Xyk6_8AFDNQgfd1locinnhnJNZ6paReQLlvczrkOHruWaKyZ4PpBIQZEUoD0gMmpU_pW5ZzcDA5oj7e_-AS2KpiHRs4FgwEoEmUWBMjihXRTuR9WGGhJgqyu-Z7iULUtLjMUxQMzQX/s1600/_DSC0128.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrG_Xyk6_8AFDNQgfd1locinnhnJNZ6paReQLlvczrkOHruWaKyZ4PpBIQZEUoD0gMmpU_pW5ZzcDA5oj7e_-AS2KpiHRs4FgwEoEmUWBMjihXRTuR9WGGhJgqyu-Z7iULUtLjMUxQMzQX/s400/_DSC0128.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620448273419078578" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7SUrq_92Biwet_vWk0jwfwfsSvVNcwO9p7z8RQ2OeFQdPBkyaCDh3u2HG-ggx_sXpcIJpXzFKD4JDRiuDQUwKhhv5SXIMJ5QyS2PdQFno742zDAG0fSnK-qzpxbzI8f8YGCQosQyhf6FW/s1600/_DSC0134.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7SUrq_92Biwet_vWk0jwfwfsSvVNcwO9p7z8RQ2OeFQdPBkyaCDh3u2HG-ggx_sXpcIJpXzFKD4JDRiuDQUwKhhv5SXIMJ5QyS2PdQFno742zDAG0fSnK-qzpxbzI8f8YGCQosQyhf6FW/s400/_DSC0134.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620457149862789858" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXzwHXXpf29RC658X1JSrgaFQGlLeD68C9O8omCXoDvYqPeGndh81nvQYjt73YziZ5iwU3boFIfSn-MVSlwchm-2V0RfaMpdNVvwxao7dDa2KEBjPcHi_54U29pN9JD5UqC45ilgIJ5BVi/s1600/_DSC0139.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXzwHXXpf29RC658X1JSrgaFQGlLeD68C9O8omCXoDvYqPeGndh81nvQYjt73YziZ5iwU3boFIfSn-MVSlwchm-2V0RfaMpdNVvwxao7dDa2KEBjPcHi_54U29pN9JD5UqC45ilgIJ5BVi/s400/_DSC0139.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620455272483691218" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMKy_y87eZQ92YyfCCQ2v9eY0n6pULOwHcaBhGcg51wH6tfgU3iEPc-WLDQO5FSOsaSKJ7n1_khwJoYv9UqQHLsEKbHoSrcNwaa0_sKx4cWHGHsa0TDB9Voc2smciYiC4aGKwxAjpVFqmS/s1600/_DSC0141.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMKy_y87eZQ92YyfCCQ2v9eY0n6pULOwHcaBhGcg51wH6tfgU3iEPc-WLDQO5FSOsaSKJ7n1_khwJoYv9UqQHLsEKbHoSrcNwaa0_sKx4cWHGHsa0TDB9Voc2smciYiC4aGKwxAjpVFqmS/s400/_DSC0141.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620456355817818834" /></a>joeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575646329456343719.post-33684769729237755022011-06-15T05:52:00.000-07:002011-06-23T09:41:43.204-07:00Degree Show ExhibitionThis week I am showcasing some of my recent interactive design work at the UWE degree show.

It was an exhibition by the Tom Paine Printing press who are based in Lewis, West Sussex, UK. The exhibition took place at the ‘Here Gallery’ at 108 Stokes Croft, Bristol, UK.<br /></div><br />When visiting this exhibition, it was great to se such an expressive use of letterpress work by designers who live very close to my home town in west sussex. The work showed strong evidence that these designers had a great talent to push the limitations of the letterpress. Some of the work was truely awe inspiring in its form. The prints showed how the letterpress process obviously generates and commands a different way of thinking compared with the approach of typography in computer generated design.<br /><br />I was also fascinated by the veriety of print formats that were utilised. My favourite pieces were a couple of enormous books <br />that documented the historical form of londons railways. These enormous books were inspiring as they created a different <br />user experience than that of a conventional book format because did not require the user to ‘lean’ into the book as they would normally. This reading experience was complemented with the large style of typography used throughout the book, allowing the user to almost lean wack and relax, rather than hunch over the book. Almost a good advertisement for british rail—”Sit back and relax”!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmp6HK0EwrAtyGh5iEoiy_ziRtb9RwBveT_Bx38Fanch_s3Cb8JsPCUwrtnNfePSPB76jhAksrmUknemKOFnChWlXmURI45hw6HeA-Q-yY1AjpX7oInjh8SDlyKz4G9s2CnGEPsPcAlF6X/s1600/1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmp6HK0EwrAtyGh5iEoiy_ziRtb9RwBveT_Bx38Fanch_s3Cb8JsPCUwrtnNfePSPB76jhAksrmUknemKOFnChWlXmURI45hw6HeA-Q-yY1AjpX7oInjh8SDlyKz4G9s2CnGEPsPcAlF6X/s400/1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593985146108263362" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLIAEjk3pcncHmF1-VIe8O6azTwtIpmZiJJfXdSYGiMH7ir0n0uRBlM4eu3BQm31TlzLXkR9iaSqZPIg_3QVTQbNIiCUUUR-ZoPLJx4e767HdUjo2Zt5QWyDgjU730kSMD14yzsHLIUkEL/s1600/2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLIAEjk3pcncHmF1-VIe8O6azTwtIpmZiJJfXdSYGiMH7ir0n0uRBlM4eu3BQm31TlzLXkR9iaSqZPIg_3QVTQbNIiCUUUR-ZoPLJx4e767HdUjo2Zt5QWyDgjU730kSMD14yzsHLIUkEL/s400/2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593986234105984738" /></a>joeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575646329456343719.post-13368920169850023292011-04-01T08:33:00.000-07:002011-04-01T09:17:49.027-07:00Pm Studios and Kemistry Gallery Visits<style type="text/css"><br />#Kemistry {<br /> font-size: 14px;<br /> line-height: 10px;<br />}<br /></style><br /><br><div style="font-size:14px"><strong>Pervasive Media Studios</strong></div><div id="Kemistry">-</div><div>Today I went to Pervasive Media Studios in Bristol and attended a really interesting talk about information user interaction at historical tourist sights.

It's been one of the hardest weeks of my life this week, with very little sleep, and a lot of cycling around visiting various printers etc!<br /><br />My entry is a Novel called Flatland written by Edwin A. Abbot in 1884. I have typeset the entire novel, consisting of 23,233 words over 178 pages, using 5 different paper stocks. I've focussed heavily on typographic detailing. Kering punctation throghout the book, and designing illustrative type. I've also designed a set of typographic devices and paper mechanic, that build upon the Novel's Narrative. <br>I have reproduced all of the illustrations of the Novel, to be in keeping with the choices of typography, and to communicate a very personal approach from the authors first hand tale.<br /><br />I bound two copies of the book myself, which also required a lot of detailed and intricate paper cropping. Here are a few photographs of my finished books just before they went off for submission.joeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575646329456343719.post-81323146821535183562011-03-13T16:14:00.000-07:002011-03-13T16:21:53.060-07:00Hands Across the WorldI saw this design project earlier for a mobile phone company called AT&T. The brief was to communicate the global coverage of AT&T, and they solved this by creating images of (hand painted) hands and mobile phones in ways which represent each country. All of the images are so inventive and some of them are really funny.<br /><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oXMvKiRm9ng" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>joeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575646329456343719.post-32731474600062760032011-03-08T01:15:00.000-08:002011-03-08T01:16:28.297-08:00First Touch Piece<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/20774655?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" width="398" height="224" frameborder="0"></iframe><br /><br />My first piece of touch interaction design that connects user touches with status updates from Facebookjoeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575646329456343719.post-31774298873543660172011-03-05T10:40:00.000-08:002011-03-06T08:45:32.156-08:00Yin and YangHere's a small stitch bound book that I made one day in December, at the beginning of an ISTD project brief.

I've also made loads of cuts to make it flow nicer, and I had to bring the total length to two and a half minutes.

I have used small caps type in title case to help accentuate the form of the door knocker glyphs.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6fSGsSZPFARUTVYmYgyJXUyu7DPrE19KyA2jy_ijCktyOsqXWyIF2V_EzCutTV2KGFMR_uFPRaaWz5_kEdw3hfAAn1vxgK0NcY7Z53QP29WPVGuDBlF8XUNdxPw6nsW7ddKXsba41cxVa/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-01-03+at+23.32.52.png"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 201px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6fSGsSZPFARUTVYmYgyJXUyu7DPrE19KyA2jy_ijCktyOsqXWyIF2V_EzCutTV2KGFMR_uFPRaaWz5_kEdw3hfAAn1vxgK0NcY7Z53QP29WPVGuDBlF8XUNdxPw6nsW7ddKXsba41cxVa/s400/Screen+shot+2011-01-03+at+23.32.52.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558111757509285922" /></a><br /><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br /><br />To view the completed website visit <a href="http://www.highhampstead.co.uk">www.highhampstead.co.uk</a>joeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575646329456343719.post-5592157756288107282010-12-18T14:51:00.000-08:002010-12-18T14:55:55.180-08:00Maggie's Cancer Care Centres<br><iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/17960024" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"></iframe><a href="http://vimeo.com/17960024"></a><a href="http://vimeo.com/user2702134"></a> <a href="http://vimeo.com"></a><br /><br />A piece of motion graphics, designed to promote the positive benefits of Maggie’s care centres to cancer patients. The piece combines typography with architectural forms, found in Maggie’s centres, to communicate a sincerely positive message.<br /><br />The typography has been set in slightly edited variations of Mr. Eaves and Mrs. Eaves typefaces. The juxtaposition of these two gendered typefaces communicates a subtle human feel throughout the motion design.joeallisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134974606000309072noreply@blogger.com1
