Person
Lucienne Roberts studied graphic design at the Central School of Art and Design. After a brief period at The Women's Press, she established the studio sans+baum, hoping to ally a commitment to accessible and engaging design with a socially aware agenda. Roberts' new studio Lucienne Roberts started at the end of 2006, working mainly in the arts and voluntary sectors. In 2000 Roberts was a signatory of the First Things First manifesto. She has taught at Yale and the London College of Communication and was a D&AD judge in 2008. Roberts is a regular contributor to Eye magazine and Grafik.
