In no particular order:
Moved to Reading, went to Tuscany, started MA in Typeface Design in Reading, graduated at Central Saint Martins, bought a new computer, worked for one month, worked for two weeks, worked for 2 days.
Many other things happened but I can’t remember them right now.
It was an amazing trip. Nice weather, nice people.
We had two great picnics, one at Radek’s hotel (where I guess he’s not welcome anymore) and one the last night in front of San Miniato.
I challenged my fear of heights and climbed all the available towers:
But I also took pictures of a lot of interesting carved letters, signs etc.
Here are my flickr sets:
I’m planning to design a typeface inspired to the S. Maria Novella train station one. I’ll leave that to this summer.
Today me, Krista, Kate, Lillian, Sara and Renata supervised by Phil Baines, made two poster listing the bridges in London from Tower to Hammersmith, each of us composed the name of some random bridges and using whatever was available in the letterpress room and fit the length of the line. We had a lot of fun and I think we created a quite nice poster.
(no A for Battersea, so I had to switch to Bodoni)

Ta-daaaaa! The posters!
