The Weaver's Apprentice Family Tree



This is a family tree that I designed as an exhibition graphic for Dovecot's The Weaver's Apprentice. The family tree shows the exchange of knowledge and skills handed down from Dovecot's original Master Weavers at the start of the 20th century to the current Dovecot apprentice, Ben Hymers. It was a tricky piece of design to get right as it had to give a sense of time and history; show different types of exchange of knowledge and skills; and reveal the hierarchy of the Dovecot Studios in a clear and understandable manner. In addition, as an exhibition graphic, the design had to be readable and accessible to all people. The family tree is a work in progress for Dovecot: we will re-visit the family tree at a later date adding more content and connections.
