I have decided to start doing a feature every friday on a designer. This week is one of my favourite designers Marian Bantjes.
She started off as a book typesetter in 1984 and opened her own design firm in 1994. Then in 2003 she decided to do work that was much more personal. She is known for her detailed and precise vector art, her obsessive hand work, her patterning and ornament. Often hired to create custom type for magazines, advertising and special projects. Her clients: Saks Fifth Avenue, Penguin Books, GRANTA, Wallpaper*, The Guardian, WIRED, Stefan Sagmeister, Winterhouse (Bill Drenttel & Jessica Helfand), Maharam, Ogilvy & Mather Chicago, Young & Rubicam Chicago, Random House, Houghton Mifflin, Print Magazine, GQ Italia, and The New York Times, among others from Europe, Australia and South America.
Pretty impressive.
