Redux Remix: An Exhibition by Pin
Common Bar. Manchester. 12th May — Monday 12th Sept 2011

The exhibition is entitled Redux Remix, as rather than this being a retrospective, these new prints are re-edits; based on the original designs but with all copy removed and striped back to the design and illustration, making them striking pieces of work in their own right.

All prints strictly limited edition of 10 per design. Printed by hand onto acid free 300gsm paper. A4s £20 / A2s £45 / A1s £60 they can be purchased directly from Common or email paul@pin-collective.co.uk for details.

New WebsitesTrof Northern Quarter. The Corner. Trof Fallowfield.
Trof required new sites for all of their bars that could be easily updated using a simple content management system by themselves. We developed a single, easy to use operating system for their needs which was then re-skinned for each of the individual bars. You can see the results here:
