The Beauty of Speed

experimental, jetset, modernist graphic design, simplicity, helvetica, marx
There are very few companies in the contemporary landscape who demonstrate such devotion to a singular design ideal. Here, Experimental Jetset expose their intensely considered economy of expression, with a humble return to an objective truth that appears desperately lacking in the visuals of our time.

...rare though he is...

"[A] competent and serious designer (rare though he is) believes and can prove that 
civilized procedure has undeniable virtue both to the advertiser and to the public. Fear, sex, sentimentality, snobbism: such are the themes of ninety percent of advertising that daily 
haunt our eyes. Hitting below the belt, appealing to our fears, and undermining our ideals – a vortex of banalities, a rubbish dump of overstatement, corrosives that eat into the daily lives of our citizens."

Davy Evans


Davy Evans, a seriously talented young graphic designer, photographer and I guess Illustrator. Having recently graduated from a BA Graphic Design at Brighton University Davy's work never seems to fail to inspire. The short film was created simply as a tool for self-promotion, the sensitivity of material captured through beautifully subtle macro photography. The images you see are in real time, without effect or any form of enhancement. Check his website out www.DavyEvans.co.uk

...which I can not do

I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it.
