Insect, the London-based design
group, was set up by Luke Davies and
Paul Humphrey from a box room in
the Old Truman Brewery in 1997, and
became one of a handful of agencies
to work from the Brick Lane venue in
East London from day one.
“We saw the whole area explode
around us,” remembers Paul
Humphrey. “But after two years of
music and club-related design work,
we felt it was time to expand and
moved to nearby Clerkenwell.
Now based in Old Street, the team
has employed another designer, but
still works primarily in the music and
youth sector of design – fusing
illustration, photography, typography
and taxidermy into its work.
Over the past two years, Insect has
also concentrated on producing art
prints for graffiti artist Banksy’s
Pictures On Walls online gallery and
for exhibitions in London, Paris, New
York and Tokyo. The studio’s clients
range from small record labels to
global brands such as Adidas, HP,
BBC Worldwide, Vans, Nike, Animal
New York, MTV and Levi’s. And their
motto? Six legs are better than two!

Donnie Bauer is a Chicago-based artist with an extensive
background in the arts and a focus on design and motion
graphics. He is currently accepting freelance work and
assisting with an online publication called Carpal Tunnel
Magazine (www.carpaltunnelmag.com).
“Most of my work is influenced by urban lifestyles and
organic forms, both beauty and chaos existing together in
one place,” says Donnie, whose illustrative urban style
has caught the attention of
XLR8R
magazine and Ecko
Unlimited. Donnie is currently working on a series of
animated logo treatments for Ecko TV.
1. WHY?
“This piece was originally created for
Rockpile
magazine, which ran an editorial on Why? – an indie-rock
band. They supplied me with a photo of the band and I
built the imagery around it. It’s a great example of how
someone’s music can motivate art. Why? is a band that
I’ve followed for years and the artwork reflects my
interpretation of their music.”
2. DESIGN GRAPHICS
“I created this piece for
Design
Graphics
magazine. The idea was to create a purely
chaotic digital mess using imagery that would reflect
tools used in design. Each of the images was drawn in
Illustrator
and the colouring and pixel effects were
implemented in
Photoshop.”
3. MF DOOM
“This is a personal project of mine. MF
Doom is one of my favourite underground hip-hop artists
and I’ve always been able to envision myself creating
imagery for someone like him. I guess the direction for
this image came from the music. MF Doom’s style of
rapping is very free flowing and organic, but his image is
often ominous and dark. The artwork was all drawn in
Illustrator
and coloured in
Photoshop.”
4. INSPIRE
“This image was created for an art show in
Washington D.C. The show explored urban lifestyles and
its effect on art. It depicts a friend of mine in his ‘b-boy’
stance surrounded by elements of graffiti and street art.
Half of the image was painted or drawn by hand and the
other half was created in
Illustrator
and
Photoshop.”

“I have a digital style that has a diverse range
of retro influences,” says illustrator Phil
Wheeler. “I take a vector-based approach, with
heavy use of paths, but work mainly in
Photoshop
because I find pixels so much more
editable and flexible. This is important if you
are a sufferer of chronic indecision.”
1. BRIGHT LIGHTS
“This was my competition-
winning T-shirt design for the annual Semi-
Permanent event in New York. The competition
theme was ‘NYC, home of the super-species’.”
2. POWER
“The brief for this cover design for
the
Network World
(US) Power issue was to
suggest the inner strength that drives the big
players in the network industry, hence the
result – an interesting buddhist/corporate/
network crossover.”
3. GARDEN
“This image was created for a
piece about how technology has enhanced the
lifestyle of the freelancer. It was published in
the American Airways in-flight magazine.”
4. LOVE&HATE
“I was asked to create a
design for a promotional coaster. The resulting
image had a ‘love’ theme.”
