'Lettering and type design featured prominently in the graphic style of the Festival of Britain. The Festival?s ?typography panel? included Nicolete Gray, the country?s wisest and most imaginative lettering historian. It was Gray and her colleagues (including Charles Hasler and Gordon Cullen) who determined the style of letter used in the two large signs on the Royal Festival Hall: the name of the building spelled out in sloping slab serif (?Egyptian?) capitals. This thoroughly English letter played its part in tempering the international-Modern architecture of the building.'
