No Days Off

Again i worked closely with Patrick Duffy, who is a part of No Days Off , on my placement over the summer. Aswell as the graphic i was dealing with it motivated me to look further into their work and also what they are all about. Just like Anthouny Burrill, their style is clean and simple, with bold text and block colour, which is a style i enjoy to incorporate into my work, but even though i use it in my work at the moment, i feel i am not using it to its full capabilities and i need to develop my skill and knowledge of when, where and how i should use simple design so that it can be most effective.

No Days off pride themselves in the eco-friendly approach when they design. i found this when i was dealing with their prints and they are all printed on 100% recycled paper. Investigating this further i found that on their website they have a section dedicated to explaining their green approach to design.

Because i cannot drag and drop the statement form their website, and typing it out would take a while, her is a link to their site so you can take a look. it is worth a read, and it gives you an insight to their design practice and ethics within graphic design itself as well within the general environment.

As well as their work i have have taken influence in their practice and design from their website itself. The clean simple layout is one i want to develop into my own website in the near future.
