Neville Brody has become one of the most significant graphic designers in the later half of the twentieth century. Brody was born in 1957 and grew up in Southgate, which is a suburb of North London. ... In 1975, Brody attended the Fine Art Foundation Program at Hornsey College of Art. Brody then decided to pursue a career in graphics instead of the Fine Arts. He studied graphic design at London College Printing before immersing himself into the independent music scene of the early 1980’s.
Even when Neville Brody attended design college in London, he wanted to push his ideas as far as possible, experiment, and take risks that would be difficult or impossible to do in a commercial context. ... " (Brody) In the autumn of 1976, Brody started a three-year BA course in graphics at the London College of Printing. Brody says he hated his time there, but that it was necessary to his development as a designer. ... The only way possible was to go to college and learn it," (Brody) His work was often considered too experimental. ... At one stage he was almost thrown out of the school for putting the Queen’s head sideways on the design of a postage stamp. ... " Brody’s attitude on computers has changed a lot since he first started using them. ...
In 1987, Brody forced himself to play around with a friend’s computer. ... (Igarashi) But in the end Brody acquired his skills with the mouse by playing a game called Crystal Quest for hours, instead of working.
