Event Details

The dialogue between the calligrapher and the designer of type has been significant from the earliest days of print.

Ewan Clayton looks at some of the issues raised through the lens of the life and work of Edward Johnston whose block letter type for the London Underground celebrates its centenary in 2016.

Clayton is a calligrapher and part-time Professor in Design at The University of Sunderland where he co-directs the International Calligraphy Research Centre. In 2013 he was awarded the first Karl-Georg Hoefer prize by The Schreibwerkstatt Klingspor for his work in calligraphy and education.
