Estela Discodea

Some months back I designed the cover for a 10 inch record by Barcelona-based musician Diego Garcia. The finished product just arrived in the mail today. You can check out his quirky low-fi sound here.

echo Art Fair

The above are the latest couple of pieces I have designed for the upcoming echo Art Fair. Top: 13x19 poster, bottom: 5x7 card. I also designed the website.

Alleycat Race Postcard

I just sent this postcard design to the printer. The Buffalo bicycle club "The Angry Bees" are hosting an alley cat race and I'm giving them a hand with the promotions. I also plan on riding in the race. The graphic below is for Facebook, it might make a good spoke card too ABBA (Angry Bees Buffalo Alleycat)

Emperor & Galilean Poster

I recently designed a poster for Torn Space Theater's production of Ibsen's Emperor & Galilean. My friend Neil Wechsler did the adaption. I previously designed the cover for the book of Neil's play Grenadine for Yale Press.

The New Frazer/Montague Site is Up

I recently re-designed the website for Frazer/Montague Design (the graphic design arm of the Montague Projects empire). Check it out.

Identity for the Echo Art Fair

I recently designed the identity and web site for the echo Art Fair a contemporary art fair in it's second year in Buffalo, New York. The fair happens July 7-8 of this summer. The images below are from the simple slide show of multiplying booth graphics I have on the landing page.

Montague Projects in "Typography Sketchbooks"

I'm happy to tell you that I have work in Steven Heller and Lita Talrico's book, Typography Sketchbooks. The book is packed with heavy hitters (Art Chantry, Ivan Chermayeff, Milton Glaser, Erik Spiekermann), I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing in their company! When asked to contribute for the theme of typography sketchbooks, I decided to use the notes and files from the design process for the Frazer/Montague Design logo. The first spread is from an actual notebook and the second is one of the sprawling Illustrator documents I generate when I am trying out different directions for the design of a logo. I might have been a little too honest, a lot of the work in this book looks like finished work that involves typography. Also, they don't show my final design, for the logo (below), but that's OK, the reader basically gets a sense of it from the first spread.
