As part of their Spring/Summer 2009 Collection, Stussy teamed up with artist Mark Ward on a series of t-shirts. The artist created strong, colorful graphics for Stussy. I always like to highlight interviews because you get to peek into the designer’s mind and see what makes him or her tick. This Mark Ward cat must be a character because his artwork incorporates a lot of different features that are far from the norm.
One interesting thing about Ward’s design process, according to the interview, is that it is very normal. You wouldn’t guess that by seeing the end product. He says that often times he has to stare at the wall to find a new approach to his design concept. It just goes to show you that great design doesn’t come easy to great designers.
