Here’s a review from The Guardian:
The nostalgia from this collection of vintage Sainsbury’s packaging
is almost overpowering. The stripped down, geometric designs
from the 60s and 70s were ground-breaking. Modern, distinctive
design delivered at a time when Sainsbury’s was in the vanguard
of a revolution in British shopping and eating.
The Guardian

Graphic designer, born June 26, 1929, in New York City. He is best known for the I Love New York logo, his “Bob Dylan” poster, the “DC bullet” logo used by DC Comics from 1977 to 2005, and the “Brooklyn Brewery” logo. He also founded New York Magazine with Clay Felker in 1968.

Milton Glaser, Inc. was established in 1974 in Manhattan, and is still producing work in a wide range of design disciplines.

Recently due to the riots around the UK his I love New York logo has been reproduced to support the
City of Manchester who have created a campaign across many media platforms. This prompted us to
have a look through Glasers back catalogue and he didn’t let us down! Inspirational.

Loving this. Time lapse has been around for some time now but it still looks amazing everytime.
Accompanied by the brilliant Cinematic Orchestra too. Brilliant combination. Check out the link below.

The V&A is currently selling some reprints of official Olympic posters, from 1912 through to the 1990s.

Check out the site for your favourite – but the two above caught our eye. Firstly, the Tokyo 1964 Olympics, designed by Yusaku Kamekura and winner of the Milan Prize for poster graphics in its day. Also featured here is lesser-known Grenoble Winter Olympics poster from 1968, the work of Jean Brian.

All sell for £15 each.

Mark Noad has put together an alternative London tube map. It shows all stations on the network displayed in positions closer to their actual locations than on the official map. The Thames also adopts a more naturalistic shape.

The map is an unofficial response to a recent backlash against the standard version, originally designed by Harry Beck. This is often described as a ‘design classic’, showing routes and stations schematically rather than geographically. Some think it’s confusing. Recent research found that many travellers make longer journeys than necessary after consulting the map.
