This year has been a reminder to tend to the little spaces on the internet I call my own with more care, starting with https://indiastreetlettering.com/.

I set up this website years ago to collect photographs I take of street lettering around the country, but I’ve been terrible at keeping it up-to-date. That changes now. And if I can keep myself motivated, I’ll share a picture from it here every week 🤞🏼

Halloween 👻 has come early to India Street Lettering because it is awash with pictures from the Nishatganj Cemetery 🪦 in Lucknow.

Signs on government buildings are usually rather insipid, and so I was pleasantly surprised to see this delightful sign for Bapu Bhawan बापू भवन on the state secretariat in Lucknow.

I love its complete lack of curves and large open knots: there is something so rigid yet playful about it.

Lucknow sure knows how to party 🕺🏼 I was mesmerised by this DJ/band tempo and the excellent hand-painted letters on it.
