the new design museum in the old commonwealth institute building. little of the original building remains except the hyperbolic paraboloid roof, but the new interior is very good, and if the museum hadn't taken it it would have probably been demolished.
I love this little guy's "face". Shown at "Less and More - The Design Ethos of Dieter Rams" at the Design Museum in London designmuseum.org/

Calvert
Calvert is now the name of a typeface. It was originally designed in the 1970s by Kinneir, Calvert, Tunhill Ltd for the visual identity of the French new town of St-Quentin-en-Yvelines. The slab-serif typeface was rejected for being 'too English', but ended up being used for Newcastle's Tyne and Wear Metro, which opened in 1980.
Calvert felt the slab-serif form reflected Newcastle's distinctive architecture. She also wanted to break away from the universal use of sans serif letterforms in transport networks. The company Monotype issued it as a typeface soon afterwards, naming it 'Calvert'. Celebrating its fortieth anniversary this year, the Tyne and Wear Metro still uses it - as do bus and ferry networks in north-east England.

Margaret Calvert: Woman at Work
(May - August 2021)
With a career spanning six decades, graphic designer Margaret Calvert has produced timeless work that we see everywhere — often without realising it. Whether it is the design of the UK’s road signing system, with Jock Kinneir, wayfinding at railway stations and airports, or the typeface used on the gov.uk website, with Henrik Kubel, her work shapes much of our national visual identity.
This display marks the launch of Network Rail’s new customised typeface, Rail Alphabet 2, designed by her in close collaboration with Henrik Kubel in response to a new wayfinding system at Network Rail stations designed by Spaceagency. It will eventually be used in combination with a suite of bespoke pictograms to sign Network Rail’s stations, and as a text face for all their key built environment design publications.
