Reassuring words from Dutch designer Paul Wolterink.

Set in the Transport typeface designed by Jock Kinneir and Margaret Calvert for UK road signage systems in the ‘50s (and still used today).

Cheers Paul!

What is your favourite book about earthworms? It’s tricky isn’t it?

Maybe you should read this one.

It’s excellent.

Modernist magazine issue 52, Nuclear.

Up and atom!

The new Modernist looks at both the visual culture that grew up around nuclear energy and some of the epic infrastructure that the harnessing of its energy necessitated.

From Protect and Survive to Atoms for Peace!

Logo Rhythm by Circa Books

Black Flag logo

2-Tone Records logo

Wu Tang logo

For all those who ever scribbled their favourite band name on their pencil case/school bag/face.

Logo Rhythm by Circa books is a brilliant read and a visual feast.

Can anything beat Black Flag? Anyone?
