Always been a favourite of mine. Everything he seems to do just amazes me.
Being this New York based Graphic Designer he is bound to work for top clients.He creates imaginative Installations, swanky Magazine Spreads and designed branding, graphics, and packaging for clients as diverse as the Rolling Stones, HBO, the Guggenheim Museum and Time Warner. Sagmeister Inc. has employed designers including Martin Woodtli, and Hjalti Karlsson and Jan Wilker, who later formed Karlssonwilker.
Ive been quite obvious here and chosen Sagmeister as a link from Marian Bantjes as they have actually collaborated on a piece of design she created using sugar to make up typography called "indestructable" (below)
It reads “If I want to explore a new direction professionally, it is helpful to try it out for myself first.”
Sagmeister is known for experimenting enormously with different objects to form typography. He is so inspirational and makes me want to challenge myself a little more.
I love the way he uses the environment to engage with his typography. In one of his pieces he entwines paper through trees and branches to make letterforms. He places everyday objects together to create phrases.
His work seems to have sense of humour around it and he seems to have a lot of fun with his creations.
