Sochi 2014

Here is some of the work that I was involved in for the Winter Olympics.

Winter Olympics Guides
Graphics for guides to the games. Produced by Michael Burke

Sochi Maps
I raided my maps collection and found these old soviet maps, published around about 1960. Some of them feature Sochi as it was then, and were used as reference for a piece by Sarah Cook. Original maps, artwork and final designs below.

World Rugby Museum

I went on a trip to the World Rugby Museum and archives in Twickenham.
The stadium itself was really impressive, I've never been there before.

 

Identity by hat-trick design

 

 

A close up of The Line Out sculpture by Gerald Laing, 2010 (above) and
The Four Twickenham Players, from 1995 (below). It seems interesting that like
William Barnes Wollen, Laing also has a series of war paintings.

One of the most interesting things in the archives was the range, and use of illustration over the last 100 years. A bigger collection of this material has been uploaded onto Pinterest here.
