A3602
This photography project is dedicated to an ordinary urban life, and especially London life.
Ordinary urban life is all about the daily routine, lifestyle, culture, laws, upbringing and everything in between. For instance, for someone who recently moved or decided to live for a period of time in London; to whom London is a travel destination; the daily routine will not be the same for those who are born, raised and nourished there. The majority of things change, and nothing really stays the same. London is as alternative as it gets. This city never sleeps and never gets tired.
The purpose of this project is to underline the different ways of thinking which concern daily life, choices, legislations etc. All the shots have been captured with a “disposable” camera. This kind of camera has a limit to the number of captures, therefore all the photos are unique and 100% unpretentious.
To conclude, the title of the project “A3602” has been named with refrence the flight number from Athens to London.
The typographic essentials in use are
The Font Gill Sans designed by Eric Gill and released by the British branch of Monotype from 1928 onwards.
It is called “ The British Helvetica”.
It is called “ The British Helvetica”.
The colors (of the captions) every photo takes the colors of the captions– the London’s Underground in particularly, uses color extensively to brand each line, and the maps and liveries are very well known.
The Cover color is based on the first flag of the City of London which is now the flag of England, having a centered red St George’s Cross on a white background.
The Central line is colored red on the Tube map. This line serves 49 stations over 46 miles (74 km), which makes it the longest of the bunch. It is also one of only two lines on the Underground network to cross the Greater London boundary, the other one being the Metropolitan line. One of London’s deep-level railways, Central line trains are smaller than those on British main lines.
