i saw this in grafik or was it creative review? I cant remember.

It’s no doubt been in a few publications, but I re-stumbled on it today and thought it was that good, I’d post it on here.
It’s nice to see good, clear, graphic design in the public domain, and not just
in art school posters etc… There’s plenty of it (Kinnear/Calvert’s Transport typeface remains my all time favourite) but it often gets overlooked in periodicals or online.

I would agree with that. I see art school posters all the time, good old signage isn’t something that i see on a regular basis. I did like how Cartlidge added their own touches to the statutory pictograms, makes it more modern and it definately suits Selfridges well.
I also think Kinnear’s typeface is really nice although Din is nice as well. Whatever works best I suppose.
I recently finished a signage project for Uni. My lecturer has prepared a proposal to the board of the University, so if they like it they’ll use it for the entire campus. SO hopefully they’ll like my idea!
