Brightest London Bars Poster

The series of four posters by leading illustrator Virginie Morgand celebrate the very best of London after dark, with scenes depicting Londoners enjoying themselves at clubs, theatre, restaurants and bars. Inspired by hands-on printing techniques and the things she collects, such as children's books and collectible toys, Virginie Morgand uses hand drawn shapes and bright colours to create vibrant images full of life and energy. The posters go on display in early 2016 throughout the city at bus stops and in London Underground stations, as both paper posters and on the digital live network.
