Run Dem Crew Book by Rosie Lee

“From its inception three years ago, Rosie Lee has branded, shaped and helped grow the urban running community Run Dem Crew. Our latest work - a book named after the ‘Away! Away! Away!’ that members shout as they set out on a run – is designed to celebrate and raise awareness of the Crew and its activities.

Compiled of six zine-style photo essays, the book documents one of the Crew’s biggest challenges yet - the 2011 London Marathon.

To capture both individual personalities and the energy and culture of the Crew as a whole, we employed photographer Tom Hull to follow key members in the months leading up to the marathon. Each member also contributed their own copy, edited by Ben Myers.

Keeping the book true to the Crew’s grassroots, we opted for an energetic, loose look and feel that utilised the vivid colour range of Ditto Press’s Risograph printer. For finish, the six chapters were individually sewn together using an exposed bind. 

The result is a frenetic, unselfconscious, heartfelt book that’s unashamedly Run Dem Crew.”

Super Contemporary

Design studio Bibliothèque produced the exhibition graphics and marketing concepts for Super Contemporary, a Design Museum exhibition that celebrated the creative spirit of London and explored its enduring reputation as a beacon of design.

A media-rich timeline, beginning in the 1960s and charting defining moments in architecture, fashion, product design and communication, tells of pivotal events and key figures. 

The design of the timeline had to be flexible, allowing for new content right up to the point of installation. The method of display is a system of wooden ‘tracks’ that ran the perimeter of the main gallery. Each track has three parallel grooves allowing facts and figures, caption artwork and objects to be slotted in according to discipline and chronology. 


Awesome. Would of loved to see this.
