It changed the face of nightlife in the north of England and beyond, home to the burgeoning sounds of rave and acid house. Hosting many international acts from emerging pop stars like Madonna to the German experimental group Einstürzende Neubauten, its eclectic line-up and DJs reflected its management as the club was run by the record label Factory Records. Founded by Tony Wilson, the label fostered a mass of home grown talent including Joy Division/New Order, Happy Mondays, John Dowie, and Durutti Column. The label designated all their releases and events with a catalogue number prefixed by FAC, hence the club being known and advertised as FAC 51.","physicalDescription":"Screen print poster with purple text on a white ground reading 'Haçienda Eight years.

Their work was a reaction to the prissiness of British design at that time; centred typography, image-led graphics, linguistic puns, and the pursuit of ‘idea-led’ design (often gimmick-driven design), products of Britain’s island mentality. 8vo took a more international stance building on European traditions. The practice’s core belief was that typography, the key building block of printed communication, could be the core component of a graphic solution (unsupported by illustration as was then the trend). Between 1986-92, alongside commercial projects, 8vo designed, edited and self-published their much heralded 8 issue typography journal ‘octavo’. The practice secured an international reputation and remain highly influential to this day.'\r\n\r\n\r\nFurther reading:\r\n\r\n‘8vo.
