There’s a big wooden hoarding on the outside of our offices. It’s going to be there for a few months, while builders work on our rooftop extension. So, we thought it would be nice to use this as an art space on which to exhibit specially commissioned work. Above you can see the first of these, created by Anthony Burrill. It’s a play on the safety graphics usually found on construction site hoardings.

Anthony studied Graphic Design at Leeds Polytechnic before completing his MA at the Royal College of Art, London. He works as a freelance designer producing print, moving image and interactive design based on direct communication in which humour often plays a central role. His projects have included poster campaigns for London Underground, DIESEL, Playstation, Nike and interactive web based projects for Kraftwerk and Air. Anthony lives and works on the Isle of Oxney, Kent.

On Valentine’s Day, most people shower their beloved with chocolate and flowers. Wieden + Kennedy decided to create three short films that remind us of why we fell in love with sport. If you like them, send them to a friend. Sorry I’m posting this a day late, but it’s the thought that counts, eh? You can watch them here.
