So, there may be a few people out there who read this blog that may have noticed our absence lately, we can explain: we have both recently graduated from the London College of Communication and have since been very busy with several interesting things.

I have been wrapped up in setting up my own design studio with Elliot Hammer, we now operate under Birch Studio Ltd, this has been eventful and very exciting, we have worked on several projects over the last few months and these will be available to see on our website when it launches in late December. Other than that I have been printing on the Black Box Press, with Simon Hessler, pictures of that to come soon. I have also been involved with setting up a letterpress cooperative with Alex Cooper, Rose Gridneff and Elliot Hammer under the name Workshop, we are based in Hackney, East London.

Whilst all of this has been happening Varvara has been working hard on designing a beautiful identity and website for Russian school of stylists – Avanscena, im sure Varvara will post more about this when it is to launch in the new year. Whilst also working on finishing her own portfolio and website.

But alas, these are not excuses to stop feeding this blog with visual inspiration and this post is aimed to break the silence.
