I just spent an hour or so browsing through Graphic Design Visionaries, a fascinating new book from Laurence King Publishing. It features profiles of 75 of the world’s greatest graphic designers (or design studio).
Mark Newson is one of today's most celebrated designers. He is famous for his fluid, blob like designs, such as the Lockheed Lounge chair, the Orgone chair and the Embryo chair, all of which have a seemingly timeless futuristic quality to them.
