Jack Davison Posters

This is a superb set of three A1 posters produced for the book launch of ‘Photographs’, by Jack Davison, at the New York Book Fair last September...

Jack Davison is a young English photographer who has an enviable reputation and client list including British Vogue, New York Times Magazine, Hermes, Burberry, Modern Weekly China, Nike, Margaret Howell and many more...

The launch at the book fair is Jack's first book, hence the production of posters for the book signing. The book is published by Loose Joints.

These A1 size posters are designed by Matt Willey and the really smart thing about them is that the posters can be arranged side by side, in any order, ad infinitum.

The posters are printed on our new weight of Offenbach Bible in 80gsm and are printed Offset litho in 2 colours - a Duotone combining Black and Pantone 485 red by Principal Colour in the UK.

If you aren't familiar with Offenbach Bible, it is the most wonderful sheet of paper. A genuine 'Bible Paper' means that it has a high opacity (for a light weight) archival quality and excellent strength. It also prints beautifully as you can see from the many other projects appearing on this blog. Originally available in 40, 50 and 60gsm, we have now introduced a heavy weight ...80gsm!

An edition of 200 of these posters is available through Loose Joints publishing with all proceeds from the sales of the posters going to Amazon Watch.

Matt Willey is now a partner at Pentagram in New York and kindly took a picture for me, showing the posters on display at the NY studio, sadly devoid of people due to the current lockdown...

Jack Davison is represented by Mini Title and the book was published by Loose Joints.

The Girl Effect

Here is a series of really striking broadsheets produced for the London Summit on Family Planning held in July by "The Girl Effect".

The Nike Foundation created the Girl Effect and is devoted to the idea that the empowerment of girls is the key to significant social and economic change in developing countries. When a girl has the right tools in place, a chance to use her voice and systems set up to work for her, she will transform the lives of everyone around her. One of the tools is family planning and that's what the conference (and these broadsheets) are about.

 

This particular job is a series of three A2 broadsheets 420x594mm folding down to A5 (210x148mm). They are printed in just two colours (black and fluorescent specials) for the bold graphic style. The broadsheets are printed on our Redeem 100% Recycled 70gsm. 

The folded broadsheets are held together with a belly band produced on fluorescent poster paper and the type is lasercut (which looks just amazing).

  

 

Design is by Accept & Proceed. Creative director on the project is Matthew Jones. Print is by Push. It's a simple, beautifully designed and well produced project ... I love it!
