I've launched a print store!

I've got 12 prints up currently, with the intention of adding in new ones and swapping out old ones as the months go by. Thanks to all the friends, family and coworkers for the encouragement ❤️

Five Michelin stars and at least three more that deserve one

The first and only non-London Indian restaurant to win a star

The best gin bar in Britain and, coincidentally, one of the best bars in the country

The funniest and friendliest people you could ever want to meet

591 parks, 14 square miles of greenery, more than any other equivalent sized European city.

The single best square half a mile of Indian subcontinental food

Two of the very best urban music festivals for miles and miles around

A gay village and a Chinese Quarter that meshes into the same outstanding suburb

The largest independent museums trust in the United Kingdom

An internationally acclaimed contemporary art venue that takes more risks than any gallery I’ve ever been to.

One of the most bohemian districts known to man and a hotbed for street art

An annual design festival that wouldn’t happen if it weren’t for the thousands of young creatives who make this city what it is

The best fried chicken restaurant outside London. Possibly inside it too.

Lycett

The only Baths in the country built before 1914 to have continuously hosted swimming since opening.

Europe's largest concentration of jewellery traders and designers

An official gayborhood alongside the likes of The Castro, San Francisco and The Marais in Paris.

The longest-established of Britain's building-based theatre companies and one of its most consistently innovative

The first music school to be established in England outside London and still one of the best

A football team challenging for the Premier League title

A La Mexicana!!

One of the best athletics stadiums in the country and the largest facility of its kind in the UK.

The National Sea Life Centre

The social, cultural, financial and commercial centre of the Midlands.

The largest public library in the United Kingdom and the largest regional library in Europe.

Britain's most important Shakespeare collection

The largest hoard of Anglo-Saxon gold and silver metalwork yet found, anywhere, ever

Works by Constable, Van Gogh, Gainsborough, Hogarth, Monet, Turner, Bacon, Rubens, Degas, Renoir, Botticelli, Van Dyck, Gauguin, Whistler and countless more - all FREE to see

The first building to be purpose-built for the study of art history in the United Kingdom

One of the world's largest coin collections

Note for young designers. For every piece of advice you're given, someone will tell you the opposite. For every Spiekermann, there's an Anderson. For every Carson, there's a Fawcett-Tang. The best thing you can do, is be honest to yourself and do the type of work you want to do.
