jeremymacgregor87 Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 I'm a fan of their work but there comes a point when becomes a black square I'm not starting this thread to stir anything negative towards the company - they've put out some great covers Reveal hidden contents I'm thinking ETBOY - more to take it in two directions to discuss their output, and to have a go at recreating their aesthetic (whatever that is). so, in celebration of all things great/uninteresting about TDR, post something of your own or something you've found that fits the bill Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide jeremymacgregor87's signature Hide all signatures profundity Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/67270-the-designers-republic-imitation-thread/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 How is that even useful to the conversation Iain? I'm not a designer or anything but they had a pretty striking style, at least for their album covers.

jules Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 I hated quaristice at first but it grew on me much the same way the music did. I especially loved the typography, I felt it really fit the vibe of tbe album. oversteps was very fitting too but sometimes simplicity can come off as laziness. I loved etboy but the blank inside left a bad taste in my mouth. in short, I like most of their work.

QBLA Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 yeah... their late 90s style was my favorite when they designed AE's albums. To me it was almost as if they were part of the group.My favorite all time design of their's is the inside of "Nav Katze - Nevermind the Distortion II". I'm not ashamed to say that I bite their style on occasion.
