Mactac organises ‘Bright Young Things Take Hackney’ graphic design competition

The BIG REVEAL of the Mactac Europe ‘Bright Young Things Take Hackney’ graphic design competition, recently took place in Bohemia Place, Hackney, with the unveiling of the impressive, colourful design of the winning artist, Linea Matei. Angus McGuffin, Creative Director for Avery Dennison and Mactac Europe said, “ he mural, printed and applied using Mactac WW (Wall Wrap) 100 Pro, has transformed the black brick surface of the railway arch into a colourful, and impactful piece of art. The colour and size creating a brilliant instagrammable moment!

Jack Basrawy, Chairman of Hackney Walk added “I believe this installation will be an iconic part of Bohemia Place setting the tone for the creative and inclusive environment that we are building here. The graphic really has transformed the arch!” Alongside the installation of Linea Matei’s mural, was the opening of the pop up store for new brand West Carolina created by fashion designer Ana Carolina, herself a finalist of the Bright Young Things Competition. The first collection for West Carolina, designed for the creative self-made woman, titled “Wavy” is inspired by colour and movement, and made to enhance the wearer’s passion for art and expression.
