Our days are numbered... so are our currencies, streets and the pages of our books. Numbers are used to mark the passage of time, denote value and record location. here is very little they are not involved in... But perhaps it is time for a makeover, a reinvisioning not of what they express, but how they are expressed. Bold, simple and always iconic they provide the perfect forms for experimentation. A designer's dream canvas, the possible variations of colour, form and pattern are endless. From minimally evoked to the highly stylised, this breathes life into numbers.
