The vertiginous perspective of a London Underground escalator plunging into the warm golden glow of the station tunnel creates a dramatic visual backdrop for the bold typographic safety message — rendered in deep red and white in a style that echoes the great tradition of London Underground commissioned poster art. Produced for the Mayor of London and Transport for London as part of the Every Journey Matters campaign.
