A&P by ARIEL McMILLION
A&P by... is an ongoing side project of London-based design and art direction firm Accept & Proceed. Creatives of all disciplines were asked to recreate the A&P logo. Aside from using only greyscale, and representing an A&P, there was no brief, allowing a free interpretation of Accept & Proceed’s very suggestive title. Image goes live on A&P’s website (link) in August. Click image to enlarge.
