New Columbia Road Shop – Now Open!
The Future Mapping Company have just finished work developing their shop on Columbia Road, East London.
Go and see their full range during the bustling flower market every Sunday between 9.30am and 2.30pm.
To celebrate the opening they’re offering 20% off the complete range.
This offer runs for the next two weekends until Sunday the 2nd of August.
If you can’t get to the shop or would like to place your order online, simply choose your map and then enter ‘shop’ as a discount code within the basket section of the website to receive your discount.
Also, coming soon… I’m very excited about this one, their first street map, London! Available late September.
Illustrator in Cornwall
Another blatant plug for a good friend of mine, known only as ‘Cosmic‘ since I met him many, many years ago.
Cosmic is a talented illustrator based in Cornwall, trading under the name of ‘Cosmic Images’. He is available for hire, or you can buy his illustrations at his online shop.
Cosmic’s illustrations remind me of Keith Haring’s work in the late ’80s, but with more humour.
He is currently living and working on a craggy Cornish cliff. Cosmic was a civil engineer and a marketing manager in former careers. He decided to dedicate his life to ‘art’ during a Christmas day skydive over the Mediterranean sea in 1998, and after selling portraits and murals and impersonating Mick Jagger for two years found employment in Cornwall designing signs, then advertising, then hospitality interiors, CAD interiors, corporate identity packages, furniture design, design for print and clothing. A true all round creative guy ;0)
