Design Inspiration 2 - Alison Carmichael

I couldn't leave without revisiting the Inspiration blog posts that I started earlier this year, especially when I realised that I had not yet enlightened you all to the work of Alison Carmichael! Alison is a freelance hand lettering artist that I have been a fan of for many years. I love her ability to create so many different styles, with such ease. And look at that client list; Twinings, Cadbury's, Bourneville, Rioja Wines, Nescafe and Waterstones - It would be a dream!

Everyone should recognise this self-promotional piece - very gutsy!

Springett's front reception desk to look like old fashioned box of matches.

Print campaign for Anchor - I just love the warm feel of this.

Poster campaign for Anchor - a good take on fifties style lettering.

The colour choice and the shape of the 'V' shows great attention detail.

Real tea leaves and tea cups have been used here to spell out the message in the medium!

Lovely Medieval style initial caps and fairy tale letters. 

Look at this Creme Egg campaign - anything can be made in to type!

Personal direct mail - one of those things that you wish you had thought of first!

I hope you enjoy her work as much as I do
