More than 60 entries submitted to this year’s Bloomsbury Festival Design Competition

This month’s Bloomsbury Festival, in partnership with Central Saint Martins, revealed the lead image representing 2017’s five-day event.

Bloomsbury Festival gave BA Graphic Communication Design students at Central Saint Martins the opportunity to submit their designs to the competition.

Following the overwhelming student response of more than 60 entries, the winning design, selected by a judging panel of experts, depicts a colourful bird as a backdrop to Senate House, cleverly combining the celebratory essence of the Festival with this year’s theme, independence.

For a third consecutive year, Coverdale Barclay will be working with Bloomsbury Festival to deliver a spectacular evening street party on Store Street, as part of the work Coverdale Barclay delivers for The Bedford Estates, one of the Festival’s main funders.
