| David Carson is principal and chief designer of David Carson Design, Inc. with offices in New York and Los Angeles. His studio’s work for cultural, corporate, music, and other clients has been recognized by numerous groups including the New York Type Directors Club, American Center for Design and I.D. magazine. Carson and his work have been featured in over 150 magazine and newspaper articles around the world, including Eye, Idea, the New York Times, the Guardian, Metropolis, the Los Angeles Times, Domas, Communication Arts, Wired and Emigré. London-based Creative Review magazine dubbed Carson "Art Director of the Era,". The American Center for Design (Chicago) called his work on Ray Gun magazine "the most important work coming out of America." His work on Beach Culture magazine won "Best Overall Design" and "Cover of the Year" from the Society of Publication Designers in New York. Carson's first book, with Lewis Blackwell, The End of Print, (forward by David Byrne) is the top selling graphic design monograph of all time, selling over 160,000 copies. The work featured in The End of Print is the subject of a one-man exhibition which opened in Germany in 1995 and has traveled throughout Europe and Latin America. Carson’s other titles include 2nd Sight, and Fotografiks (with design historian Philip Meggs). Carson has produced many films, books and exhibitions and has won numerous awards. His work continues to be subjective and largely driven by intuition, with an emphasis on reading material before designing it, and experimenting with ways to communicate in a variety of mediums. Carson remains a hands on designer, keeping his office small and mobile. |
