David Carson

David Carson was born in 1952 in Texas, America. From 1982-1987 he was a teacher at Torrey Pines High School in San Diego and then he started to experiment with graphic design. His hobby was surfing and he became the worlds 9th best surfer in the world that helped him direct the surf magazine Beach Culture. The work from this magazine made him well known for his graphic design and typography.
He was the art director for Ray Gun magazine, a music and lifestyle magazine which was a major success in his career as then he went on to work for other major companies such as Nike, Armani, Sony and Suzuki.

This is a magazine article. The title is uneasy to read with the letters in no particular order. It also takes up alot of the space on the page and only leaves a bit at the bottom for the text which makes it easier reading.
The picture of the person who the article is about frames the text at the bottom as it is inline.

This is a double page spread for a magazine article. The eye is drawn away from the text by the bold background sunset and the rough figure outline of the man. The text seems unsignificant narrowly down one side and again seems like a easy read. The title of the article is also insignificant and is hard to read. Finally at the bottom right hand corner the 'guide me' gives off two meanings, turn the page and the guy outlined is lost possibly relating to the article.

This is an advertisment for Nike. It's rather interesting and creates many images. Firstly the writing is in the shape of a question mark with the main advtising point as the stop. Also the logo is the noticibly the same size as the tennis player's picture promoting the product. The words are all different sizes and cases depending on their signifcance to the meaning for the Nike product.
