Videomitschnitte von der TYPO Neville Brody bei FontShop Neville Brody studied Graphic Design at the London College of Printing before immersing himself in the independent music scene of the early 1980s. As an art director for Fetish Records, he was able to experiment with a graphic language that amalgamated painting with a new sense of architecture. This he was later able to exploit in a more commercial setting for The Face between 1981 and 1986 where his typographic experimentation, a medium he had hitherto avoided, transformed the look of magazines, advertising and retail outlets worldwide. For Arena magazine from 1987 to 1990, Brody attempted to cool down the frenzy surrounding design by concentrating on a minimal, non-decorative typography, which, as the newly introduced Apple Macintosh computer became central, he then developed into a more expressive, painterly approach. Having started his own London studio in 1987, Brody found that overseas clients were far more supportive of his work intentions - to embrace the potential of the computer and to provide companies with templates that would enable them to carry out their own design needs in-house. Commissions from Haus der Kulturen der Welt Berlin, Mens's Bigi and Parco in Japan, and the opportunity to design postage stamps for the Dutch PTT were followed by two major television graphics projects - the German cable channel Premiere and the Austrian state broadcasting company ORF. The transition to working with electronic images was reflected by Brody's involvement with digital type. In 1990, he opened FontWorks with Stuart Jensen and became a director of FontShop International, with whom he launched the experimental type magazine, FUSE. In Austria, he has set up the design-for-television company DMC; in Japan, he works closely with CD-ROM publishers Digitalogue. Brody's work is now focused upon the evolution of a new visual language that questions and creates a dialogue on the role of electronic design in communication.
