Gordon Young: Comedy Carpet


The design has changed the landscape of Blackpool and thousands have travelled to see it. This massive piece of typography has become a landmark of the city. The collection of type is amazing and reminds me of an old style newspaper or poster. It really suits the celebration of the classic comedians. People stop to read and recall fond memories and laugh with each other. I think its amazing that graphic design can do this on such a scale and change the enviroment so dramatically.
