Founded by Matt Baxter and Dom Bailey, Baxter and Bailey is a small communication design studio with a strong focus on architecture, design, technology and the arts.
The studio offers strategic and creative direction for visual identity, digital, print and motion graphics, packaging, exhibitions and site-specific installations. The team works across a range of creative disciplines for clients both in the UK and internationally and has won numerous awards for both creativity and business.
For Baxter and Bailey, their egg is “bold, brave and bursting with pride.” Its rosette humorously settles once and for all the timeless question of “Which came first?”, and the iconic Lion Mark stamp gives the egg a quintessential Britishness. No highfalutin arty-farty perplexities to puzzle over; what’s special about Eggsistential is its friendly, attractive simplicity.
“The primary objective of our design is to make people smile: a visual pun which uses unexpected scale, combined with an age-old philosophical conundrum, to entertain its audience.”
The egg has been created using weather-resistant materials and, Baxter and Bailey joke, “lets the whole world know exactly where it sits in the pecking order.”

Alexis Harding graduated from Goldsmiths College in 1995. Since then he has subjected painting to what he refers to as ‘a singular physical strain’. His work emerged as an antagonistic and unruly take on the process-painting movement of the 90’s and has developed into a wider practice that explores and celebrates the intersections between abstraction and representation.
In the past fifteen years, Alexis has exhibited widely in the UK and internationally, winning the prestigious John Moores Painting Prize in 2004. He has recently had solo exhibitions at Mummery+Schnelle, London and Two Rooms Gallery, New Zealand. Alexis lives and works in London.
Here’s what Alexis has to say about Egg Regrets:
“For a long time the egg just sat there in the studio, distracting me. It soon became like a type of sponge and a depository for the studio residue. Paint residue and paint skins that would fall off the paintings would end up on it and wrapped up rolls of masking tape, brushes, sieves, knee pads. And then it became a site to put things ‘in’, after I smashed it up and drilled holes in it! I was hoping I could change it and get it close to a Lucio Fontana egg. This failed and it’s become something else: it’s absurd and yet it feels like the objects and gutters I use to make the paintings, so it’s connected to the work. It taught me to be a bit free-er in the studio and it’s funny and sad at the same time.”
