Anthony Burrill on why music, protest and being nice are important to design
At September’s Nicer Tuesdays event in London, our associate editor Olivia Hingley interviewed the legendary typographic artist Anthony Burrill, delving into topics such as how music intersects with his design ethos, how his work is grounded in the language of protest and what it’s like to be copied. Anthony also revealed the backstory to his motto of ‘work hard and be nice to people’ and his “annoyingly optimistic” attitude towards politics and life.
