  • Intro talk at the Design Museum in London

    Our Creative Director Brian continues his hard work with the design lecture series LongLunch and has arranged a talk at the Design Museum on the 12th from one of the UK’s most prominent design agencies of the last two decades.

    Intro’s Creative director Julian House will be talking about his design philosophies to a packed Design Museum, and then three days later will be flying to Edinburgh to do it all again for the Scottish Design community.

    There are still a few tickets left for both talks, available via www.longlunch.com.

    There will be free posters to give away, designed by Julian himself, and screen printed by Dan Mather.

  • Two new LongLunch talks in the pipeline

    Our creative director Brian, in his work with design lecture series LongLunch, has confirmed two up-coming talks this autumn. Moving Brands will be talking in Glasgow on the 4th October with a few minor details to be finalised and tickets due to go on sale sometime in the coming weeks.

    The second talk will be in London at the stunning Design Museum, where LongLunch have already held four sold-out talks since their move from the Westbourne Studios venue. UK design industry behemoths Intro, in the guise of their creative director Julian House, will be taking to the (small) stage on the 12th November. Tickets will be on sale via the Design Museum in the not-to-distant future.

  • Time for another LongLunch: Lava Design at the Design Museum in London

    It’s that time again when our Creative Director (that’s me) is off to run yet another LongLunch lecture. LongLunch brings together the design community regularly in London and Scotland to listen to inspiring designers talk about their work, their design philosophy and their loves and hates.

    The 45th talk will be from Dutch agency Lava — who spoke for LongLunch in Glasgow last year — on the 4th of February at the stunning Design Museum on the banks of the River Thames in London. This is the third jointly run talk with the Design Museum who have a government obligation to run a certain number of talks each year and LongLunch is proud to have been invited to provide two talks a year at the Design Museum from the Graphic and Digital design industry. More details for the talk can be found at http://www.longlunch.com/

  • D&AD does V&A au naturale

    Following a fire alarm last Friday at the talk I was attending at the V&A by 3 former D&AD presidents, the event was concluded outside on the street, in a rare piece of design street theatre.

    Martin Lambie-Nairn had just given us a wonderful talk on the influence of individuals in massive government projects, inspired by Prince Albert (Queen Victoria’s other half), when the event was almost cut short by a fire-alarm. Not to be unheard however, Simon Waterfall and Iain Davidson served up their talks on what inspired them inside the V&A on the steps outside – complete with jobsworth fire marshall saying they weren’t allowed to stand on the steps! He was called a few 4 letter words by the assembled crowd of designers and passers by.

    Truly memorable!

  • North & East becomes Graphic Clinic

    So the time had come, where living in the South and East (and West London) of the UK no longer suited having a name like North & East, so we put our thinking caps on and came up with Graphic Clinic. We think it better says what we do. But don’t worry, we’re not about to bombard you with clichéd lines like “give your brand a health heck” or “visit the design doctors”, all that is just too passe! So, as before, strong design, clean design, effective design. Simple really. Give us a call for your health…..just kidding! (not about the calling us bit though).
