This is only some of Neville’s Work and amazing resume.
Neville changed the face of design!! And has done everything and anything that involves design. He is creative, and innovative. Not only did he evolve the idea and the boundaries of design but also is a Dean. In which he mentors and gives insight to the next generation of designers. He changes the way people look at things. And continues to bring new and fresh ideas to design. His company, book/Fuse, and all his old work have and continually change and influence design on an astronomical level. Overall Neville Brody has set the bar high for now and future designers. Teaching them subconsciously that to be successful you have to push the boundaries, you have to try new things. Detail and effort is exponentially important. There is no such thing as a small project.
With this PowerPoint I tried to embrace Neville’s artistic quality.
If you looked at Research Studios the color pallet is black and white
I took great care with effort and tried exceptionally hard to make sure it was visually appealing and every detail was in check
His resume alone is impressive. When looking
at his work impressive is not a good enough
word. His typography alone blows anything I
have ever seen out of the water. The detail,
beauty, and originality he puts into every piece
is phenomenal. You can see himself in his work
and the way he puts his heart and soul into
every piece. To Neville Brody this is simply not
a job but a part of himself. I find it
inspirational that he does not follow a set of
rules or code he sets his own standards. I can
relate and understand him. Neville Brody is an
absolute inspiration.
