We are currently crowdfunding a book on Margret’s design career, Woman at Work, which includes the story of how she came to create the signs for the British motorways and entire road network with Jock Kinneir in the 1960s. You can back it here: https://t.co/E96OIlEcSz

Two mins into this road test by Top Gear’s @MrJamesMay he picks up a passenger – Margaret Calvert – resulting in a great in-car interview on her work on the UK road signs (and some graphic design-based shenanigans) https://t.co/pmCAbBWrez

@DesignReviewed @_MattLamont @StudiodotBuild That’s amazing, Matt, thanks so much for supporting the project. 👍🏻

You don’t need that copy of Karel Martens Printed Matter (sorry Karel). You NEED this. Margaret Calvert & Jock Kinneir & team were responsible for one of the most influential and important design systems ever produced (IMO).
