What I mean for a nice walk around

























Time is running faster and faster, I can clearly see it, they were absolutely right! Otherwise I have got no explanation for my hair getting more white everyday and me being constantly late in writing these posts.
Taking it as an agreed statement, I can now move on talking about last Friday's "out & about" session, which was pretty enjoyable, it has to be said. First of all, the Old Street/Shoreditch area is so filled with studios, agencies, galleries, clubs and whatever else, having a walk there is always interesting. For instance, it has been proven that a design agency can rightly have a pool table, even though it was a small one with an arguable orange playing surface.
Secondly, the places we have visited did not lack potentials of inspiration.

What an astonishingly long piece of work...
Typography, I just love it!

The Kemistry Gallery is incredibly tiny, but the exhibition itself was great, a good amount of posters and material, but the walls did not end up neither crowded nor messy. The White Cube Gallery is wide enough to display many artworks pleasantly, no matter whether they actually deserve to be showed or not.
The YCN (hopefully the name is right...) and the bookshop close to it were undoubtedly two huge sources of material every designer would strongly desire to have in his own studio/living room/bedroom/hallway and everywhere else, if he could just afford it.
And, as you can see in the second link above, lunch at last!
