Peter Saville


Savilles work with Factory Records produced some fantastic modernist artwork, from the simplistic pieces used for the New Order covers to the more in depth work produced for the Durutti Column, where he produced intricate pieces of art that involved laying a variety of materials and then photographing them.
This work is a great example of how a designer shouldn't limit themselves to the confines of computer software and digital imagery. The raw analogue feel of this kind of art has a certain quality to it that is difficult to create in the realm of computer based art. I intend to explore this hands on approach in my work for the packaging brief.
