Non-Format never stop and we think it’s OK!! The studio designed a poster and t-shirt for the UK? OK!! exhibition of British graphic designers at Parco Factory, Tokyo.

Taking inspiration from the notion of Axis Thinking (the brainchild of frequent Bowie collaborator Brian Eno) the design depicts a series of mixers with sliders positioned so as to describe each Bowie album within Non-Format’s own framework of extremes.

The t-shirt is produced and sold by BEAMS.

Non-Format gave art direction and design to Magnetic Man’s latest release through Sony Music, ‘I Need Air’. Clean and moody style give the typography enough room to breathe.

Their collaborative show, Pick Me Up' opened on July 1 at Monster Children Gallery in Sydney. The show is a ‘result of a year-long visual conversation between the two of us.

Insightful!
