germanbus

This was a design for Metro bus system in Washington DC commissioned by the German Embassy in 2004. This was during the height of the Iraq War and the German Embassy wanted an image to communicate friendship between the United States and Germany.

It was sort of a “We are still close friends, right?” message.

Directory of Illustration Mailer, 2009

dir art

This was a cover and fold-out for the Directory of Illustration 2009. Dave Plunkert of Spur Design is the designer. When I first turned it in, it had a more complex background. Dave liked the art, but I asked if there was anything he would change.

He said no.

I asked again if he was sure.

After working with the type, he suggested a black background.

David is a very smart guy.

p.s.  This is the first post on Planet Yang. Hopefully this will be the first of many.
