Another Great Designer- Andy J. Miller

He was recently featured on BOOM, and I have been looking at his stuff like it's an addiction. According to his website bio "Andy J. Miller is an illustrator, art director, designer, and musician" from Indiana now living in the UK. Miller has had clients such as: Sony, Converse, Nike, Howies, Woot T-Shirts, Chalk Apparel, NYLON, The Big Chill Festival, ActionAid, Science Council, Palmercash T-Shirts, The Yellow Bird Project, Beck's, Kitsune Noir, Bon Bon Kakku, Infectious Art. The Yellow Bird project, in case you haven't heard is a Montreal based charity organization where musicians design a T-shirt, we print and sell them on their website, and all of the profit goes to charity. Each of the artists gets to choose their own. Miller is making a colouring book for Yellow Bird Project called "The Indie Rock Coloring Book featuring coloring book pages in tribute to bands such as Bon Iver, The Shins, Broken Social Scene, MGMT and more". Colouring, design, music and charity. What's NOT to love?!Anyhow, his stuff is great (yeah, he's kind of similar to Damien Correll and Mike Perry, I guess it's just a style I really like), so check it out. Maybe get yourself a colouring book later this year.

Damien Correll: awesome designer

Based out of Brooklyn NY Damien Correll is a freelance designer who has worked for Urban Outfitters, Nike, Yale University, K2, Rome SDS, Plug Research, Nickelodeon, Zoo York and Polyvinyl Records to name a few. He has also been featured in the New York Magazine, XLR8R, Juxtapoz, IdN, STEP, NOVUM, The New York Times Magazine, Faesthetic and contributes regularly to Swindle Magazine.
You can tell from his work that he really has fun with his designs. His style kind of reminds me of Mike Perry. Just like Perry he uses simple illustrations that are highly geometric and sometimes repetitive mixing it with photography and typography. Lots of patterns and layers are used to complete the aesthetic.

So check him out, his portfolio is overflowing with good design. Like most designers you can also buy stuff from his online store if you really like it.
