PRINT MAGAZINE - David Carson

In this Print Magazine spread is an article I wrote and designed on one of my favorite featured graphic designers David Carson. I became interested in this designer from a previous project at another university and grew to admire his work. Carson is not only known for his “new approach to type and page design, while breaking the rules without using the traditional layout systems” but in addition placed 9th as the best pro surfer in the world! In this spread I tried to capture his laid-back surfer and design grunge vibes using some abstract lines and textures, while mimicking his lack of following traditional layouts of grids and margins. I designed this with InDesign and created the illustrative accents and textures using Adobe Illustrator.
