David Carson

David Carson is an American graphic designer. He is best known for his innovative magazine design, and use of experimental typography. He was the art director for the magazine Ray Gun. Carson was perhaps the most influential graphic designer of the nineties. In particular, his widely-imitated aesthetic defined the so-called "grunge typography" era. He then went on to be the the art director of Transworld Skateboarding magazine. In 2000, David Carson opened a new personal studio in South Carolina. In 2004, he then became the Creative Director of Gibbes Museum of Art in Charleston and designed the special Exploration edition of Surfing Magazine and directed a television commercial for UMPQUA Bank in Washington. I like David Carson work because in his pictures there's always one part of it that stands out.
