Si Scott is a masterful typographer, and as you can see by this uplifting hand-drawn work, the heart of design truly does still beat in his pieces.
I was lucky enough to be given one of these posters that he designed for Designersblock by one of the organisers. Very soon it will sit above my bed in a neat black frame. I had a choice of this one or one that read
Love Will Tear Us Apart. The latter is a given. Love tears me apart most days. But the heart of design - a verb - it's a lovely reminder that it is still pumping viscous energy into everything we do.
Si is part of an exhibition called
Some Type of Wonderful which the amazing
Lifelounge typologist and designer extraordinaire Luke Lucas is organising along with the lovely Lifelounge crew.
It's apt that when I came across Si, it was through some of the nicest, most creative designers London has to offer and now I am reminded of him again by the pigeon-paired crew at Lifelounge.
Rory, Paul and Robert from
Designers Are Wankers and Designers Block welcomed this lonely design-loving traveller into their world of design barbecues, converted east-end warehouses and brilliant beery events. Lifelounge has done the same.
Grab one of the limited edition calendars that will be sold at the end of the
Some Type of Wonderful event, and you might feel almost as lucky as these honey thighs.
