Vaughan Oliver is a British Graphics design and typographer,
who has worked in 23 envelope and v23 where they produced many designs for the
record label 4AD and between 1982 and 1998 created many different covers for
bands such as dead can dance and pixies. Vaughan Oliver is said to have inspired many different
artists as his covers where so popular and had a big impact of the music culture,
as his work is very punk looking. And with his use of experimentation has created
some of the best album covers.
The bright colours and the use of the typography really makes the covers stand out, the colours are often clashing which links into the decade these where created in. They have been layered up so they are never boring and there is always something more to look at and to discover about the album covers. I also like how the typography is not just going across the image horizontally but vertically as well as this gives another dimension to the work.
