We have now interviewed three applicants for the W de W apprenticeship with Jeremy Tankard and chosen Fernando Rodrigues, a Brazilian student just about to start his final year on the BA at Central Saint Martins.
Fernando will start spending two days a week for five weeks with Jeremy on 23 September and hopefully will be coming to our lunch at the AGM when we will be able to see his typeface.
