I have a confession. I am a Routemaster nerd. There, I’ve said it. In print. I love the curves and shapes of the vintage 1950’s design. I love the patterns of the seats. I love it’s trademark red colour. I love the shape and detail. I was very happy that the Routemaster was voted one of Britain's top 10 design icons in a 2006 poll!
This piece was created from an original photograph of one of the buses still running in London. It was digitally coloured by hand and printed on a super-slim sheet of ultra-glossy aluminium. This brings out the gorgeous details of the front grill and makes the red colour extra vivid.
