five years ago, hughes wrote to the then-mayor of london, ken livingstone and outlined his idea
for a london logo. the idea for his logo pulls on milton glaser's heart from 'I (heart) NY',
the RAF symbol which along with being british represents fashion and carnaby street cool,
and is combined with the name 'london' and the union jack.
