Inspiration – London Transport Museum

Been meaning to post this for quite a while,  ive been thinking of ways to get inspiration for my work from sources other than looking at websites and reading design blogs.

So i thought i would visit somewhere in the capital city that could maybe provide some of that inspiration,  i decided upon the London Transport Museum as it’s always looked interesting whenever ive been around Covent Garden.

I found it to be a very interesting and worthwhile visit, the place was full of fascinating imagery and artefacts documenting how the city of London has gradually become the huge great mass of networks,roads,tubes,rivers that it is today.

Particularly interesting to me were some of the signs and posters from the early 20th century, i love the old fashioned typography and hand made artwork. A refreshing change from the Photoshop world we live in today, take a look at some of the photos i took ( on my phone so quality isnt that brilliant!)
