We are delighted to welcome back Phil Cleaver for this landmark 100th episode. A distinguished and multi award-winning figure in the world of graphic design, Phil has long been recognised as one of the field’s true heavyweights. A protégé of Anthony Froshaug, Phil refined his design and typographic expertise under the guidance of Alan Fletcher at Pentagram, Wim Crouwel at TD in the Netherlands, and Michael Wolff at Wolff Olins.

In 1984, he was appointed Creative Director of Branding at Allied International Designers. Just a few years later, in 1987, he founded CleaverLandor, a specialist design consultancy whose rapid growth eventually prompted Phil to return to hands-on creative work. In 1992, he established et al, a close-knit consultancy of like-minded design professionals.

Phil is a Fellow of the Chartered Society of Designers, a founding trustee of The Monotype Museum, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, and Professor of the Creative Industries at Middlesex University’s School of Art and Design.

He lectures internationally on design, and his early typographic work is preserved in the St Bride Printing Library. His book designs are held in the permanent collection of the V&A Museum’s National Art Library. In 2012, Phil was invited by the esteemed creative director David Holmes to collaborate as typographer and book designer on a special edition celebrating eight decades of Sir Peter Blake’s life and The Macallan – working alongside Sir Peter and four other master artists.

Phil is also the author and designer of What They Didn’t Teach You in Design School, published by Ilex Press and distributed by Thames & Hudson.

this is hilarious!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
