The Jumbo Coventry Storybook was unveiled this Bank Holiday Monday in Coventry city-centre. Gary and Zenon were on hand to witness the event along with the parade of elephants that included our very own elephant Kenneth.

The Jumbo Coventry Storybook

We're just putting the finishing touches to the 'Jumbo Coventry Storybook'. The book contains over 300 stories written by Coventry schoolchildren. Illustrations were provided by students from Coventry's Bablake and Cauldon Castle schools, and other Coventry based contributors.
Measuring 62 x 88cm the book is set to be the largest storybook in the world. The official unveiling will take place on Bank Holiday Monday (August 31st) in Coventry's Lower Precinct.

The new Coventry University Prospectus has been delivered.
Based around a theme of badges, Gary actually created hundreds of badges in the process. The results of which can be seen above.
This is the second year that Kraken have been asked to design Coventry University's full-time undergraduate prospectus.
A busy week for Kraken...

It's been a tremendously busy week for us, in fact it has been for a while - which might explain the lack of posts lately. But this week has seen the culmination of several things that we've been working on.
First up, the web team have been working on a new version of the Kraken Opus site - check it out at www.krakenopus.com. There are also a few more Opus sites on the verge of being launched which we're excited about but can't tell you about just yet!
Second, a major development for the Opus side of Kraken: the launch of a fantastic gallery and store right in the middle of Covent Garden, London. It's the first ever retail or permanent exhibition space for Opus, and alongside the Opuses themselves we will be featuring works by many famous and revered photographers and artists. We in Coventry have been working hard to get the store fitted out and ready to take London by storm. Look out for more information and pictures soon.
In between all of that there's been plenty else going on lately, including more design work for Coventry University, such as their next prospectus. Great stuff.
The work goes on as ever, although we might just be looking forward to Christmas next week as well!
Clearing the Decks

I've finally finished all the design work on the Clearing campaign for Coventry University.
Keep your eyes open for the camper van designs on local billboards, in the press, at the Bullring and on the London Underground. Oh, and also on the rear of various buses around the Midlands.
So on this one occasion I don't mind you saying my designs look like 'the back end of a bus'!© 2009 Kraken Creative
