Poster for an exhibition at the ICA London in 1964. The five multi-disciplinary projects came from four schools: Bath Academy of Art in Corsham, St. Martin’s School of Art in London (2×), College of Art in Leeds, and the Department of Fine Art at King’s College in Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

The poster was designed by James Meller, a graphic designer who worked extensively for the Institute of Contemporary Arts. It uses Venus Extended for the title and Akzidenz-Grotesk for the information. Meller was one of the eight founding members of Foster Associates in 1967. In the photo shown at the end of this post, he can be seen on the far right, with the team and Buckminster Fuller.
