The Weaver's Apprentice Posters and Logo





This is a series of posters that I designed for The Weaver's Apprentice, an exhibition that tells the story of the Dovecot apprenticeship, featuring objects from Dovecot’s archive, as well as historic and current works. The poster above is printed at A1 while the others are printed at A4. The beautiful image on the A1 poster is a detail of weavers' initials from a tapestry created at Dovecot in 1924, Lord of the Hunt, by William Skeoch Cumming. This image is also used on the invitation card and banner that I have designed.





I am pleased with the logo that I designed using different weights and styles of Whitney, the 'official' Dovecot typeface: I hope that it carries some connotations of the authority of the weaver (in uppercase) and the forward moving playfulness of the young apprentice (in italic lowercase), both linked harmoniously together in a symbiotic creative relationship.
