The UK seaside resort of Blackpool has a reputation for a number of things: its famous illuminations, its hen dos , its rock , plus a particularly compelling episode of Four in a Bed. Until now, it’s not exactly been known for its graphic design. But that could be set to change thanks to a gorgeous new book from Sarah Horn titled En-Suites Available that presents the Lancashire town’s many hotel signs, holding them up as beautiful examples of seaside vernacular signage.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.
