Olympic posters proposal
for London 2012.

My thinking behind these posters was
to convey the movement and energy of the
games, in a simple yet abstract way.

–These posters won best in show
at the D&AD new blood exhibition.
–Featured on Johnson Banks Review
(work they wish they had done).
They also appeared in Creative Review
magazine and on their blog.


The designs focused on the movement and
speed of the athletes equipment.

They were used to help travelers associate
relevant tube stops, with the Olympic events
that are being held there.
