Influences

with one comment

Peter Saville - Style agnostic. Aesthetic purely distilled from subject at hand. Fresh yet timeless. Collaboration.
Paul Rand - Complex visual information boiled down to clear geometric forms. Ability to define (sometimes trite) client goals into his own grand vision.
Josef Muller-Brockmann - Systems thinking. Minimalism. Discipline. Grid.
Sister Corita - Honesty. Beauty. Colors. Freedom.
Tom Waits - Timelessness thru eccentricity and wit. Ugly beauty.
Egon Schiele - Expression. Challenging subject matters. Ugly beauty.
Robert Brownjohn - Explosive passion. Dedication to work. Self destructive. All or nothing attitude. Good communicator.
Charles Eames - Aesthetic and technological innovation thru process. “Renaissance” approach. Craftsmanship.
