On the evening of May 20th 2015 (last night), amongst the design hedonism of Clerkenwell Design Week 2015, JTP (John Thompson & Partners) Celebrated 20 Years of Placemaking. The event was held at the beautifully restored 18th-century Grade I listed music education centre and events venue owned by the London Symphony Orchestra. The event was to mark the successes of JTP as an award winning architectural practice over the last 20 years and those who have contributed towards to it. With 400+ guests including clients, collaborators and former employees all gathered in the majestic venue, (styled by event organisers Zafferano with support from JTP's In-house marketing and communications team) to witness an 'Urban Circus' - full of Cocktails, Curiosities, Grab Food Frivolities, Distractions and Mind-blowing Desserts!

An Essay On Typography by Eric Gill.

An Essay on Typography was first published in 1931, instantly recognized as a classic, and has long been unavailable. It represents Gill at his best opinionated, fustian, and consistently humane. It is his only major work on typography and remains indispensable for anyone interested in the art of letter forms and the presentation of graphic information. This manifesto, however, is not only about letters their form, fit, and function but also about man’s role in an industrial society. As Gill wrote later, it was his chief object “to describe two worlds that of industrialism and that of the human workman & to define their limits.” His thinking about type is still provocative. Here are the seeds of modern advertising unjustified lines, tight word and letter spacing, ample leading. Here, too, is vintage Gill, as polemical as he is practical, as much concerned about the soul of man as the work of man; as much obsessed by the ends as by the means.
