Peter Saville
Peter Saville, born on the 9th of October 1955 in Manchester, is an English art director based in London. Saville attended St Ambrose College. He studied graphic design at Manchester Polytechnic (later Manchester Metropolitan University) from 1975 to 1978. Peter Saville is famous for the design of record sleeves for Factory Records artists, most notably for Joy Division and New Order.
Here is a piece of work created by Peter Saville. I feel that this piece is tremendous! This piece of work looks like confectionery items have been scanned in and merged to create this diverse effect. I like the way that confectionery logos are merged together to form a background because it looks really creative and unique. I felt that this idea was smart as putting designs together as a background insted of straight colour really makes this piece look interesting and eye-catching while still having bright colours making it an exellent captivating piece. The type used has also got confectionery logos merged together. Although this is a creative idea, i feel it makes it look a little confusing and difficult to read what it says when first looked at, however the thick bold shadow helps give away the letters which i feel is great help to read and stand out.
The use of imagery instead of plain colour really does give it a different feel which i could include in my design as it stands out and would look creative in a poster form.
Here is second piece of work created by Peter Saville. This piece of work looks like it was created by repeated rectangles with block colours placed in a 45 degree angle next to each other which gives a bold and alluring look to it which really draws your attention. The black and yellow colours used help this design stand out as one is dark but bold and one is light and bright. The typeface has a creative effect with the small rectangle cut outs which look faboulous as it relates well with the rectangular repeated background.
The use of repeatitve rectangles look bod and certaintly with creative colours used to fit the 80's style this illustration would be a great one i could use in my poster design.
