Somthing quite radical appeared on the front page of one of Canada’s national newspapers this past Saturday – and I’m glad I was part of it. The Globe and Mail put out a special edition on China and asked me to design some Chinese lettering for the front page. The result was striking. The Chinese characters read: Ambitious, Powerful, Restless... Get Ready for China’s Century. This weekend edition sold out in Greater Vancouver on Saturday alone. And here’s one of the emails the paper received: “To live on this planet for almost 70 years and finally witness one of the most spectacular front pages in my lifetime, makes me want to tell everyone where I was when I first saw it.” — J. Kerr, Vancouver
