Work in progress for Friends of the French Institute

I have been working on a leaflet and other printed items for the Friends of the Institut français d’Écosse. Based in Edinburgh, the charity was formed twenty-five years ago to support and promote the deep ties between Scotland and France. Drawn from across Scotland and run by a management committee which meets regularly, their aim is to raise funds on behalf of the French Institute. 

As part of the design work that I have been undertaking, I have updated and digitised the Friends logo – which was originally designed by Dalrymple – to include the additional word d’Écosse. The original logo was typeset in Caslon Doric but I have re-typeset it in Founders Grotesk, a more freely available typeface. For the leaflet, I selected Minion Pro as a complementary typeface to be used alongside Founders Grotesk.
