New website for Tobacco Warehouse

/

We are delighted to announce the launch of a new brand and dedicated website for Tobacco Warehouse.

The brand truly represents this Liverpool landmark, its proud history, and its exciting future.

Like the development, the new visual identity incorporates elements of the building's iconic architecture, whilst juxtaposing them with a modern simplicity. The 'T' references the steel girders at the building's core, the heart of its industrial heritage. The brick circle that surrounds it is directly inspired by the warehouse's elegant brickwork.

Simple, strong & stylish.

Perched on scaffolding several stories above the ground the painter Gary Jones added the final touches to a giant mural designed by the artist Judy Chicago of the four Beatles engulfed in a circular rainbow.

“He is very, very gifted with a paintbrush,” Ms. Chicago said as she sat on the terrace below and described the frequent phone calls she and Mr. Jones have traded as she has watched him execute her mural, first on a webcam from the United States, where she lives, and, over the past week, from a perch in the hotel where she can offer tips to Mr. Jones on his handiwork.

From Thursday 1 June
Judy Chicago was invited by Tate Liverpool to be one of 13 artists, musicians, and performers from the UK and abroad, each tasked with representing one of the tracks on the Beatles' seminal album, Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, as part of a city-wide celebration of the album's 50th anniversary. For her assigned song, "Fixing A Hole," Judy has designed a 40 foot high mural that will be painted on the side of the monumental White Tomkins and Courage Grain Silo at Stanley Dock in Liverpool.
