Classic example of a New Graphic Design layout using only two colors, (a two color run for a printing press is much cheaper than full color) but was an exciting visual utilizing space, tension, asymmetrical layout, san serif letterform and photography.
Someone said to me: "those collages have been done".
Well, It hasn't yet been done by me. I don't know why so many people are afraid of doing things that "we've seen already"... in my opinion it's a great starting place to things we haven't seen yet.

A wedding feature visual for a potential client.
Client wanted a visual on how a DPS would look in a wedding guide.
I gave them a very fresh, clean and elegant design. The curls were drawn first and the plants were vectorised from a photograph of leaves and plants.
They accepted and commisioned myself to design a wedding brochure for them - all be it, it wasnt as exciting as the design above but thats awkward clients for you!
The front cover to the October 1935 issue of Shelf Appeal, the magazine that considered the issues of packaging, display and advertising. Interestingly this issue's editorial considers the magazine's policy of commissioning a different artwork for each issue; this by 'Berger' shows two radio 'valves' singing to each other and is related to a substantial article on radio advertising. This was an interesting proposition in the UK as the BBC had an effective monopoly of national broadcasting and advertisers would have had to use one of the stations based on the Continent and whose signal was available in various areas of the country.
