Anyone seen this sticker?
The new issue of Creative Review contains a sticker specially designed for us by Peter Saville. The theme of the issue, guest edited by Mother, is selling out: part of that is a discussion of the degree to which those working in visual communications “prostitute” themselves.
Saville’s sticker, which is just under A4 size, was inspired by a sign that he spotted on a door in Meard Street in London’s Soho. The beautifully crafted plaque adorns the door of one of a row of Georgian houses on the street – rather like a traditional sign warning of hawkers, except this being Soho, its target is people looking for business of a different sort.
Since the issue went out last week, the sticker has begun to turn up in various locations around the country. If you spot it, please take a picture and email it to patrick.burgoyne@centaur.co.uk and we will post it up here.
Thanks to the Serif blog for putting this one up outside a design consultancy in Newcastle
Serif also spotted this one on a local pub. Apparently it used to be a brothel
Also included in the February issue are two A1 posters. One is an Illustrated Diagram of the Mortal Soul by Adam Dant.
The other is by Mother themselves.
