This is a review of the 2009 Northern Design Competition winner Kerry Venus. Kerry Venus is a graduate from the Lincoln School of Art and Design who's entry won her the top prize, and contributed, along with her other work, a job as an in house designer for Morrisons Supermarkets. I love Kerry's entry, her style and her reasoning behind it is something I am also passionately interested in promoting and her piece very eloquently and more so interestingly showcases not only her talent as a designer but also her dedication and love of design. Kerry's manifesto is very aesthetically interesting, with a fantastic application of her idea. I also took the time after reviewing her manifesto to check mild peril media which is the brain child of Kerry and illustrator Colin Mayhew. There is some great work up on the site and the site itself is a fantastic representation of the work to be found there. Below is Kerry comments on her entry.
"The Handmade Manifesto is a policy I wrote about how all designers should turn off their computers and get back to doing their work by hand." I couldn't agree more.
