Designs that influence me

These are a few designs that I think look good and influence me. I am beginning to love the combination of digital and traditional when it comes to design but I am heavily influenced by Nike and their ads.

This was done by Alexis Marcou for an ESPN magazine, I love his use of traditional medium mixed with some graphics to create a truly unique illustration. As far as other designs go, I like what I like, it just depends but I'm finding that I like advertising and posters. I like the blend of type mixed with illustrations and graphics that come together to form a great composition. I like designs that wow people and makes me think how did they come up with an idea like that, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.



Poster by Mads Berg

Its hard for me to find a bad design, not really, because if it is I kind of look past them...actually no. Marta has some bad ads/designs, some of those posters on those trains do not appeal to me at all. Yeah, lets just leave it at that.
