Hoxton Street Monster Supplies
Award: Graphite Pencil
Graphite Pencil / Writing for Design / Writing for Design / 2011
Based on the brilliant 826 programme in the USA, Hoxton Street Monster Supplies is the fantastical shop front for the Ministry of Stories, a pioneering children’s writing workshop. The story is that the shop was established in 1818 to serve the daily needs of London’s monster community. Inside you’ll find a whole range of products for monsters, including Tinned Fears, Human Preserves, Neck Bolt Tighteners and Death Certificates (to prove you really are dead). But the most important part is that the shop shelves hide a secret – the disguised entrance to the Ministry of Stories.
