Saul Bass


Since I'm doing Saul Bass for my second project, I can also show some of his works here.

I think Saul Bass his style is grid-like placement and irregular forms, also freely drawn letterforms. 

I really like his style and I like the non-prefect grids.

I like simple and clean composition in a design, but I think prefect grids are too clean.

I think his designs are attractive to me.

Japanese Mystery Book



A book that I borrowed form the library.
It is a Japanese mystery book.
This book was printed in 1991.
I really like the cover picture.
I like the color of the people and the color of people on the knife changed.
For the book's content page, it has a small picture represented each title.
I think it's an interesting content format.

The vitamin water packaging design.

Another design with simple word and no picture, but it bring the important message with the much bigger font size.

Popcorn!

Image from http://johnnys-sekai.blogspot.com/2012/10/scans-arashi-popcorn-booklet-download.html 

This is the CD cover of a Japanese group called ARASHI.
They are one of my favorite groups.
The theme of this album is "Popcorn"

The cover of this album combined their theme and themselves.
I think this cover is funny and weird enough to attract attention.

Year Book




This is the year book cover of my class.
I think this cover really bring out the feel of 2012.
The "2012" are square-like form and it has a SF feeling.
The type face also matched the background.
I think it's a pretty good cover for yearbook.
