A design icon and amazing inspiration folds. link

I have been designing and creating images for over 15 years. Anyone designing today who grew up in the 80’s heavily in the music scene most likely shares my love for the likes of Vaughan Oliver, Neville Brody and Peter Saville to name a few. They continue to amaze me and their influence as well as Designers Republic and a few others can be seen in our studios work. I do think that design has made a come back in the past few years as an important tool for a brand or artist as it helps define a brand. There are so many surfaces and screens and so many brands struggling to be seen on them that it does tend to bring up the caliber of design and in our case, innovation as well.

What I love to see is that some of my heros from back in the day are still going strong and are able to make themselves current without sacrificing their personal style. I just came across some new Arena Magazines by Neville Bordy on Dezeen. What I find amazing is that Brody’s design is timeless, these could easily have been designed in 1988. Hats off.

Thanks to Dezeen for sharing.
