We are participating in an Exhibition hosted by Gregory Burgess Architects titled 6×6, a design exhibition exploring parallel practices across six creative fields including Michelle Czech, Vuaghan Howard, Romaine Logere, Sonia Mangiapane, Buro North and Vanessa Maxim. Come along tomorrow night at 6pm for the opening at 10 York Street Richmond.
Stunning audio visual performance created for the Ars Electronica museum in Linz, Austria, which has a facade that contains 1085 LED controllable windows. The windows’ colors are changed in realtime with music that’s broadcasted on speakers surrounding the building.
Buro North have been engaged to develop an exciting new event brand… Introducing ‘Better than TV’, an upcoming alternative to passive entertainment. This new forum for public debate and audience participation will be launched across Melbourne in the coming weeks.
Approached by the not for profit group behind BTTV we were briefed to help make public debate a fresh and exciting concept for their youthful audience. Taking cue from the familiar test pattern motif and punchy screen colours we worked up this bespoke typographic identity, and paint dipped an old TV to accompany their philosophy ‘BTTV; high definition colourful conversation’.

Was a cracker. Well done to the Melboune Museum of Printing and the supporters that helped organize the day, the letterpress and typesetting demonstrations were a treat to see, as were the works created by some of Melbourne’s best designers..
Finn Butler has just joined the ‘Sounding Board’ with the Sign Design Society for the DOT Highways Signage Review in the UK. The purpose of the Sounding Board will be to provide industry knowledge and guidance from the areas of wayfinding, design and manufacture to the project Steering Group.
The review is the most wide ranging consideration of traffic signs in Great Britain for the last 40 years and will provide a traffic sign system that meets the changing needs of the road user. Originally developed by Jock Kinneir and Margaret Calvert from 1957 to 1967, the current signage system is arguably the most successful information design project ever implemented in the UK, and will be a tough act to follow.
