Welcome to the World of KENSINGTON! Before we start to look at the “random” types and wondering what’s going on with this book, let me give you some idea about Kensington. Kensington was once home to one of Victoria’s major abbatoirs and livestock saleyards, as well as an army ordnance depot, and has a strong working-class history. These areas have experienced significant urban renewal since the 1970s and while it retains some industrial sections, Kensington is now primarily residential suburb in nature. Kensington is a small gem, welcoming and vital with a real village atmosphere and well serviced by community spirit and a proud sense of identity. Throughout this book, you will experience the history and culture of Kensington by looking at their diverse typography. They can be interior or exterior, they can have a history behind it. It takes you from home to your neighbours, your daily visiting cafes to the factories. The type that people had created can be very casual, home designated and even to the official formal ones. This book will tour you around Kensington, flip your page and enjoy!
