After graduating from the PgDip Conservation course at University of the Arts, London at Camberwell in June 2010, Sirpa Kutilainen continues her work at the Design Archives as a Digital Imaging and Media Technician with an added passion for paper conservation. She developed the 'Conserving the Archive' blog to discuss her involvement with the conservation of several pieces for the 'Out of the Shadows: Macdonald (Max) Gill decorative map posters and visual genius' exhibition. The blog will continue post-exhibition, concentrating on paper conservation issues and questions that arise within the Design Archives.
