Mini Bio
Martin Lambie-Nairn was a designer.
His design consultancy created Channel 4's original animated "blocks" logo in 1982 and the globe balloon idents used by BBC One from 1997 to 2001.
His company also produced memorable idents for BBC Two, one of which had blue paint splashing horizontally across the screen to hit a metallic 2.
Lambie-Nairn's other credits include satirical puppet show Spitting Image, which he co-created with John Lloyd, Roger Law and and Peter Fluck.
It was Lambie-Nairn who suggested Fluck and Law make a show based on their sculpted caricatures.
Other brand signifiers in which his company had a hand include the bubble logo used by mobile phone company O2.
