Edward Green is a men's shoemakers founded in 1890, when Mr. Green began to make hand-crafted shoes for gentlemen in the traditional shoe making area of Northampton. The company has passed through several owners but remains owned and run by an individual, Hilary Freeman. The shoes are still craftsmen made, in Northampton using the finsest quality calf and each pair of shoes takes several weeks to make!
This is the range brochure which shows the wide range of styles available and is used for promotion to both customers and press. The size is 155x118mm, portrait and is "singer sewn" in a green thread which matches the Edward Green brand colour. The cover is unprinted, displaying only a beautiful de-boss logo on the front (click on pics to enlarge). It has a 44pp text printed on our Marazion Ultra 135gsm which reproduces the shoes and the detail in the leather, beautifully, whilst still having a matt, tactile feel which relects the tactile nature of the calfskin. Printed in 4 colour process plus PMS 3275C.
On Saturday, there was a very interesting little program on Radio4 about the ampersand, which will appeal to all those with a typographic interest!
bored medieval scribe right the way through to a modern day digital font designer. Delighting type designers throughout the centuries as a chance within a font to create a small piece of art, it is a joyful moment in a functional resource. Speaking to Ampersfans Alastair enters into a world of letterpress, punchcutting and typography and discovers how the ampersand can be found at every step of the way, bringing a joyful flick of a tail to the dullest document.
If you thought the ampersand was a bright young thing in the world of type, you couldn't be more wrong; first credited to Marcus Tiro around 63 BC, combing the letters e and t from the Latin word "et". Fighting off competition from his nemesis, the "Tironian Mark", Alastair then tracks the ampersand to 16th Century Paris where it was modelled in the hands of type designer to the King, Claude Garamond, then back across the sea to William Caslon's now famous interpretation, designed with a joyful array of flourishes and swirls. Alastair will discover how the ampersand became a calling card for many typographers, showcasing some of their best and most creative work.
A simple twist of the pen, the ampersand has managed to captivate its audience since print began, in Ampersfan Alistair tries to pin down this slippery character down once and for all"

Lynn Jones carried out research right up to chair development by Upholstery Trading Ltd in High Wycombe.The chair was awarded Best Product of The Year in 2005 by the BCFA (British Contract Furniture Association) and Parenting Product of The Year in 2006. The design is now registered both in the EU and US and the ongoing development of the chair continues to inform her teaching practice.
Dr. Jones has collaborated with industry partners including Ercol Furniture, John Lewis and Vitra.
