Carl’s work gets published!

Our Designer, Carl Holderness talks about how he ‘Made’ it into the latest Victionary book, Geographics….

In my final year at The Leeds College of Art I took part in the annual Pop-up Shop Project, a string of creative events to encourage innovation and creativity.

My pop-up event was called ‘Made’ and the concept was to sell pieces of work made by students at The Leeds College of Art. The aim was to deliver a snippet of the fresh and professional talent coming from the college with a focus on crafted media.

Little did I know that my work would appear in the latest Victionary book, Geographics. Victionary is well known for its series of ’I Love Type’ books, so when the publishers contacted me via my personal website asking for high quality images of my project ‘ Made ’ I was beyond excited!

When I spoke to the team at Victionary, they explained that Geographics has been designed to highlight geometric designs in today’s creative world. The book demonstrates how simple shapes, together with colours, facilitate communication and fortify memories in diverse context and fields of design. So, my ‘ Made ’ project was exactly what they were looking for!

Here’s me with my very own copy of Geographics…
