Canada's Story

- 

Having raised almost $100,000 on Kickstarter, Design canada, a film about the history of canadian graphic design is premiering this summer – five years since Greg Durrell – partner at Hulse & Durrell – and his collaborators Jessica edwards and Gary Hustwit began filming. We caught up with Durrell to find out more about the project...

What inspired you to start the project?

Growing up in Canada, I realised I was surrounded by beautiful symbols and logos, but I could never really find any information about them. As my frustration grew, I decided to make a film about it. When I began the project I didn’t even know anyone who had made a film before. A mutual friend put me in contact with Jessica and Gary and a half-decade later, the rest is history.

Did you discover any new work?
