Trip to the Tower Bridge

Last week we went as a class to the Design Museum located next to Shoreditch. After touring through the New Design Museum we walked down the boardwalk to the oldest pub in London called the Anchor. On the walk there I found this bar that was called the London Riviera. I loved the bright colors and retro signage that the bar displayed. The font of the word "London" on the sign was sans serif  and the font of the word "Riviera" was a type of script. I loved the contrast of colors along with the contrast of fonts. Once we got to the pub I stopped to take a photo of the bar itself. It was an old building built in 1615 and survived the Great Fire of 1666. The font of their sign was slab serif and was old-fashioned and very unique. It was a subtle font but still made the building look simple and elegant. I had a great day eating and talking with my friends and we can't wait to go back to that area to explore!
