Reading #6 - PoMo Design Examples

David Carson
















I have always liked David Carson and the way he designs, it reminds me a lot of the skateboard and surf culture that I am acquainted with. The two photos juxtaposed against each other and the type going every which way and the scale and hierarchy of the differing elements is an index sign that this piece is post modern.

Neville Brody
























I think the simplicity of this piece is great. Written backwards, one flipped vertically, and the way they fit together really is pretty cool.

Jeffrey Keedy

























This piece of PoMo design reminds me of a lot of different art movements, such as constructivism and modernism. However, with the typography taking up most of the bottom, and the mixed lines running throughout the text tells me that this is very post modern.

Ed Fella

























This one is one of my favorites out of the ones on this page. There is a lot of mixed typefaces portrayed together, something that was very post modern. The photo, instead of being enlarged, is super small and tucked away by the text.

April Greiman

























This design is a great example of PoMo design, because the photo fidelity has been changed by adding color and adding a black bar across the eyes. There are also random photos of objects flying around the piece as well, and there is a lot of contrasting color and it is very busy.
