Four contemporary designers


These four noteworthy practitioners share some commonalities between them. First and foremost they all think outside of the box. Each designer thinks of a new way to get his or her design ideas to stick into peoples mind. One way they achieve this is by doing things with design that is very original; it is stuff that you wouldn’t expect to see. These designs range from Sagmeister’s penny design on the street to Marion’s individualized cards. They also do work for money and do jobs that are more traditional but they are all always looking to be different and new with their design.
In saying that Design is everyday, everywhere and in everything, each of these designers do relate. Stefan Sagmeister for example takes a sabbatical every seven years in order to come up with new things. In doing this he comes up with some of his best ideas by just looking around the world and refreshing his creative mind. These four designers share the commonality that they take time to refresh they’re creative minds by looking and taking in what design surrounds us all everyday, everywhere, and in everything including mother nature and its elements.
