Amandine Alessandra is a graphic designer based in London. Her playful installation and performance-based 3D typographic work has featured in numerous books. She likes to think of
typography as a way to transform the message into a readable experience. Amandine is originally from Réunion Island; she lives with her family in Bethnal Green.

Tower Block Books is an independent publishing house set up in 2014 by Amandine Alessandra and Rute Nieto Ferreira. Our first book was the architectural alphabet The Big Letter Hunt in the East End of London.Tower Block Books is interested in picture books about place: cities,neighbourhoods, streets, buildings, rooms, dens, nooks and crannies. We want to publish stories about their life and architecture.

Moments Like This is a London-based multi-disciplinary art and design practice. We are a team of designers, architects, artists, and thinkers, working with an ever-growing global network, to initiate site-specific projects, which explore the relationship between people and place. Through lectures and workshops, short courses, guided walks, interventions, digital and printed publications, exhibitions and other convivial events, we aim to generate research and outputs that address environmental, social, cultural, political, and economic issues, which inform our experiences and understanding of the physical world.

Working with local partners, we promote inclusiveness, collaboration, critical debate, hands-on approaches to making, and the production of educational spaces for the transfer of knowledge. Combining critical pedagogy with the practice of pragmatic research methodologies, based on experience and observation of the lived environment, our aim is to encourage communities of practice to challenge and rethink their individual, and collective, notions of everyday life.
