Helen Ingham

By breaking down the preconceptions of graphic design, this course encourages the development of ideas as well as an understanding of layout and typography. Starting with a number of short observation projects and continuing with a selection of diverse yet interlinking projects, the course will include observational drawing processes, constructive group crits and classroom activities with the enthusiasm of the BA degree course at Central Saint Martins throughout. You will also be required to complete certain projects in your own time to maximise your learning process. This course encourages those who are willing to experiment and produce an inventive portfolio, whether for an application to an HND or BA course, or is for those who just want to refresh themselves and have an enquiring mind.

Students also get a taster session in the letterpress room, as part of this course.  Please note that this is a computer-free zone. 

Helen Ingham is an established letterpress printer who has produced work for a varied client base all over the world as well as on her own projects. She is the letterpress technician at London Metropolitan University and an associate lecturer on the BA Graphic Design course at Central Saint Martins.
