Controversial US designer brings his one-man-show to Manchester and London. The aim? To "provide bonafide proof of work, the highs and lows of a ferociously independent existence and a couple tall tales [sic] from his so-called career in the cutthroat world of contemporary graphic design"

Described as one of the most sought-after speakers in North America, Aaron Draplin is founder and figurehead of the Draplin Design Co., which counts Nike, Esquire, Timberline and even the Obama Administration among its past and present clients.

Tour organiser Keri Newman said in a press release:
