Exclusive Details

David Carson needs no introduction. He was described by Creative Review magazine as "the most famous graphic designer on the planet".

Although graduating with a degree in sociology and starting his career as a teacher, a design course one summer holidays encouraged him to become a graphic designer. Today his studio’s work has been recognised the New York Type Directors Club, the American Center for Design and I.D. to name but a few. Carson and his work have been featured in over 180 magazine and newspaper articles around the world, including a feature in Newsweek magazine, and a front page article in the new York Times.

David's work continues to be subjective and largely driven by intuition, with an emphasis on experimenting with ways to communicate in a variety of mediums. Carson remains a hands-on designer, keeping his studio small and mobile.

Carson’s first book, The End of Print, is the top selling graphic design book of all time. In this exclusive video he explains his current viewpoint. Although the computer may be the sketchpad of today, Carson maintains that design is all about individuality and passion, and the challenge is to provide a creative environment for good design to flourish.
