ABOUT

During my time at Gendall Design i designed the 120 page book ‘Plen an Gwari: the Playing Places of Cornwall’, written by Will Coleman, featuring illustrations from leading Cornish artists Brian Hoskin, Trystan Mitchell, Heidi Ball, Daryl Waller and Emily Henshall, opening-up the undiscovered treasures of medieval Cornish theatre culture.

The brief: To create a bold and imposing typographic experience, immersing the reader within the pages.

“A throng of people thousands strong, surrounded by magnificent pavilions, performers in splendid costumes, massed chorus and musicians, live animals, guns and fireworks; the theatre culture of medieval Cornwall would have delivered an epic, immersive experience.”
