First ‘Friday Gallery’ of 2007: Volume at the V&A

Our 2007 Friday Gallery visits (for more information see Friday Gallery, left) got off to a great start with Volume at the V&A. Volume is a sculpture of light and sound – an array of light columns positioned dramatically in the centre of the V&A's garden which respond to the movement of the viewer. Thanks to the ridiculously short Winter days, we were able to experience the full effect of the sculpture – the darkness of the garden accentuating the beauty and delicacy of both the audio and visual. Volume is a collaboration between United Visual Artists, Robert Del Naja and Neil Davidge.

New edition of One&Only resort directory to launch this Spring

One&Only has appointed Inaria to design and produce a new edition of its resort directory. Inaria created their previous directory in 2005, a luxurious casebound book with a print run of 300,000 copies. To ensure that the original directory was unique to One&Only, we commissioned a bespoke making of GFSmith's ColorPlan paper which was used to wrap the hard-back cover. The directory will feature a mixture of resort and 'Moments' photography and will have additional information on One&Only's forthcoming resort, One&Only Cape Town.
