DRB selected to design and produce the 2007 Silicon Valley Creative Directory cover
|
DRB was selected from several designers to submit ideas for the 2007 cover of the annual Silicon Valley Creative Directory. We submitted three distinct ideas and were complimented by the publisher in a strange way...”You guys make it hard to choose...they’re all terrific!” The cover that was selected was actually a fusion of art forms which DRB Creative Director, Ken Camozzi, terms “tactile design.” The clay sculpture used in the cover was actually the creation of DRB Art Director, Fred Yokel, who has several of his “Jestures” sculptures currently on display in prestige galleries.
Ken used the multi-dimensional graphics in his design to enhance the “printed texture” to match the physical texture of the sculpture to add depth and warmth, as well as imagination to the cover design. This fusion opens possibilities for future design work on higher-end projects, i.e. Annual Reports, Progress Reports, Capabilities Brochures, etc. to use tangible art in conjunction with graphics design to achieve a particular message. According to DRB Founder and CEO, Ray Brown, “This was a great project to explore new creative directions and look beyond the traditional images for resource material.”
