A mockup of a poster for our proposed competition. The 4 hosts and judges of the original 'bakeoff' TV show are behind a table covered in a blue and white checked table cloth. On the tables are various incredible cakes and fancy looking buns. The faces of the hosts have been covered by the logos for GOV.UK, DWP, Scottish Government, Home Office and Ministry of Justice. We've clumsily edited the original bakeoff logo to read 'Great Design System Bakeoff' by pasting over the word 'British'.

I am usually on the critical yet optimistic side when it comes to the public sector, looking for good examples to share. That is also what @karakane-kk.bsky.social and I do with the int’l #GovDesign community.
Regarding the signage: I’d like to see how other people use it and navigate.
