I have been researching for the last week on the assessment we are doing, and I have chosen to do David Carson (The Digital Age). One look at his designs, and I couldn’t turn back. I really love them, and it has been great exploring some of his work!
A few of my favourites I have discovered so far are as follows:
David Carson is an American Graphic Designer, born September 8, 1952. He is best known for his innovative magazine design and use of experimental typography. David Carson has been one of the greatest influences on modern graphic design in the last 25 years. He took both photography and type, manipulated and twisted them together.
He was the first to mix and match funky off-beat type faces with traditional ones in order to add texture and diversity into his work. His typographic experimentations have been admired by recent generations for their rebellious messiness that closely imitated the social scene of the 1990s.
Here are a few other designs of his I have collected:
