Something a bit different from I Love Retro are these illustrated film prints. There are six films to choose from at present and each one measures 11 x 16 inches. My personal favourite is the ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ one but maybe that’s because it reminds me of my youth seeing as it was one of the books we had to study at school… oh to be 15 again!

The founders of INK – Joff Casciani, Ollie Wood and Haydn Evans couldn’t find anything they really wanted to put on their walls. Everywhere they looked they saw reproduction artworks, painfully hip artworks for loony prices or prints that looked like they had been designed by a machine rather than a human.
So they set about making truely sublime posters which were colourful, at times deep and meaningful but always a talking point. Either lithographed or silk-screened, Ink is printing on some beautiful papers, all 100% recycled sheets with a critical eye tuned to detail and colour.

By far the best thing to come out of London being awarded the 2012 Olympics are these stunning retro abstract designs by Alan Clarke. His thinking behind these posters was to convey the movement and energy of the games, in a simple abstract way.
These posters are just a proposal at present but they certainly get my vote!
