two wheels

Guess what! I finally have a bicycle! It's not new and it needs some love, but I'm still so excited about it. Will post some proper "before and after" pictures when I have a chance, but I thought I would just take one of its sweet logo sticker for now.

New Project

A set of bicycles - part of a collaborative project with three classmates, Zulpha, Harriet and Lisa. 

The project is an online magazine, in the form of an interactive PDF. Our mag is called CLAN and is all about a "creative community"and basically showcases work and features interviews with some top class creatives.  

This issue of CLAN is "the bicycle issue", where each creative is depicted as a customised bike, reflective of their personality and unique creative style. The reader picks a bike, on the contents page, and the creative, then takes the reader on a tour through their "hood", which then leads up to the 'content' of the mag. 

I had a lot of fun doing these!

London bikes

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this already, but I was really lucky earlier this year because, along with three other second year design students, I was sent to London on a student exchange sponsored by the British Council. We spent two weeks in London and attended classes at Kingston University . 

One of the things that I kept noticing about London was the amount a bicycles - especially really beautiful vintage ones... Someone told me that London has recently undergone a kind of 'bicycle revolution' with more and more people choosing bikes over cars. I think this is really nice and am planning on getting my own bike as soon as I have the cash!
