Neville Brody

1980's

Post 11, Melssa Mackie

 Neville Brody became famous in the 1980’s for his typographic design work on numerous magazines, in particular The Face and Arena. He is also known for his record cover design for Depeche Mode and Cabaret Voltaire.

 He was a founding member of FontWorks in London and designed a number of notable typefaces for them. He was also partly responsible for instigating the Fuse project which is an influential fusion between a magazine, graphic design and typeface design.

 Brody has consistently pushed the boundaries of visual communication in all medial through his experimental and challenging work, and continues to extend the visual languages we use through his exploratory creative expression. In 1988 Brody published the first of his two monographs, which became the world’s best selling graphic design book.
