Emer Swift BMX logo & interview
Posted on: 13-07-2010
Creative Review have just written a piece about a logo I designed for
Emer Bicycles. You can read it here. I spent most of my formative
years riding a BMX so was really pleased to get involved in the project.
I am interviewed about BMX and my work on the Emer Bicycles site.
You can also buy a cool tshirt featuring the lettering here.
Creative Review

I was fortunate enough to be one of six illustrators Creative Review
asked to collaborate with a CGI studio to create an original image
for their June issue, which focuses on CGI. I was paired with
TIGERX.STUDIO and you can see the results in the latest magazine.

Web update - New prints & work
Posted on: 25-03-2010
I have updated all sections of my website today with new work
and new functionality. Please note the new arrows below images
which enable you to navigate through sets of visuals, very useful
for showing prints and commissions in more detail.
My limited edition print 'Blazing' is now released through POW.
A second and final colourway of the limited edition version of the
Home Sweet Home print is now available. I have also updated with
work for Apple, Faber & Faber, Penguin, Business Week,
Ministry of Sound and others.
New print release
Posted on: 28-02-2010
I'm pleased to say my next print will be released through Pictures on Walls.
They sell the work of some very big names in art like Banksy, Paul Insect
and Antony Micallef, so I think it's a very positive development.
I can't say much about it yet but I'm really pleased with the new print.
I'm expecting a March release, when I update my site. To be notified
first when the print is released please sign up for my mailing list.
J. D. Salinger
Posted on: 30-01-2010
Rest in peace J. D. Salinger. I had the immense privilege of working with
Penguin on J. D. Salinger's back catalogue last year, including his iconic book
'The Catcher in the Rye'. Penguin wanted strong, classic and elegant looking
designs. I developed a typeface that I wanted to have a mid twentieth century
feel to it, in keeping with the time of their writing, but also appear somewhat
timeless. The book jackets were approved by Salinger himself and I'm pleased
with the inline, flourished treatment. The Guardian have written a small piece
on the new book jackets here.
The 2010 Winter Olympics
Posted on: 30-01-2010
I'm pleased to say that my design 'Neo Sans' is the official typeface of the
2010 Winter Olympics, including a custom unicase version I developed at
Monotype. I look forward to seeing how it's used when the games begin.

The Vogue blog featured my Flames print today, which was very gratifying.
There aren't many of these left at all now, so do buy one soon if you'd
like one.
