One Minute Brief WINNERS:

Create tribute posters for Rik Mayall

Today was a good chance for us all to pay tribute to Rik Mayall, a comedy legend and someone who always did things differently to others which we admire.

There were some fantastic ideas and we feel that the following ones deserved the win.

@lil_hursty8 with '1st class Mayall' Lovely idea. They should make this into a commemorative stamp. Get in touch with Royal Mail and make it happen!

@dognbonesjones with 'Royal Mayall' A similar thought about the king of comedy. Nice line.

@alvo_muses with 'youngone' A simple typographic idea. 

@mr_glossy with 'May all' A nice campaignable concept'

Thanks to everyone for creating such a great tribute to such an icon.

Comic Sans for Cancer
Curated by Chris Flack, Renee Quigley & Jenny Theolin

We are using Comic Sans to take on cancer.
In its short history no other font has caused as much division as Comic Sans; not only does it divide opinions, but it is also a font that everyone seems to have a view on. So extreme are these views that websites have even been set up to have the font banned from use! We want to harness the energy and opinions that surround Comic Sans and show that it can have a positive effect on society. So why not put this divisive font to good use and use its 20th anniversary to raise money for cancer research.

Designers are being asked to represent what Comic Sans means to them. Do they love it or hate it? What would the world be like without the font we all love to hate? Should we wish it a happy birthday? The results will be showcased in a curated exhibition which aims to challenge the way we look at this divisive font.
