Thesis InForm 2017

www.thesisinform.wordpress.comThesis InForm is an exhibition showing work produced by a selection of students from across the Design School at the LCC in response to the ideas explored in their final year Thesis. The students were invited to transform and re-interpret these concepts in any visual or physical form imaginable.

This is the literature produced for the exhibition and symposium.
The finished size is 240mm square folding out to 720x480mm and is printed offset litho in one colour black on both sides on our Colorset 100% Recycled 120gsm in Bright Red.
The identity and publication is designed by GMD student Keenen Sutherland. The editor is Tracey Taylor and the organisation is by Andrew Slatter (Senior Lecturer linked to the Graphic Communication Programme).
The publication is expertly printed 'in house' at the LCC at the Elephant and Castle by Tony Yard and Scott House. Really well printed and folded, you can see the job coming out of the folder in the image below
My thanks to Andrew for sending me copies.

This week is Green Week...at the LCC

Green Week is an event hosted at the London College of Communication (LCC) where staff and students are encouraged to take part in workshops, talks, installations and exhibitions. This year the subject of Green Week is SURVIVAL and during the week, the events will seek to investigate how designers, filmmakers, journalists, photographers and communicators are responding to the issues of our time.

The programme for the week has been printed at the LCC on their own Heidelberg B2 press by the resident technicians Tony Yard and Scott House. 
The booklet is 148x105mm (A6) portrait and is a 16pp self cover - which is a very "green" format - that is to say it is made up out of one SRA3 sheet which maximises both the press format and the paper. The book shows the timetable of events happening throughout the five days (10-14th February 2014)
The edge of each of the pages is coloured, which relates to the timetable in the front. A nice touch although this makes it more challenging from a print finishing point of view, but as you can see from the picture below, it's been very successfully achieved.
 
The programme is printed on our Shiro Echo, White 80gsm (100% recycled) from Favini in Italy - just perfect for Green Week. Printed CMYK offset litho throughout.
 
Publication design is by Tom Box. Cover illustration is by Josie Molloy.
 
There are many events which are free to go to, so have a look at the links below and see if one takes your fancy.
 
Conscientious Communicators was formed in 2011 at London College of Communication to develop and consolidate a community of practice around environmental and social creativity. Thanks to Course Director, Sarah Temple for getting me involved.
