St Bride Wayzgoose

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the annual St Bride Foundation wayzgoose went online. They asked selected printers from around the world to contribute '2 Minutes of Type’ by giving a brief tour of their studios and work. #TwoMinutesOfType

Established in 1891 with a clear social and cultural purpose, St Bride Foundation is one of London’s hidden gems.

Housed in a beautiful Grade II listed Victorian building, St Bride Foundation was originally set up to serve the burgeoning print and publishing trade of nearby Fleet Street, and is now finding a new contemporary audience of designers, printmakers and typographers who come to enjoy a regular programme of design events and workshops.

At the heart of St Bride is an extraordinary archive relating to printing, publishing and graphic design. With over 100,000 items, the library is probably the largest of its kind in the world and is regularly open to view.

The library features:

  • 126 years old collection

  • 4km of book shelving

  • 80K+ visitors per year

  • 100K amazing items
