Q. What is the philosophy behind your design?
Gerrixx. I just create what I like... there is no
philosophy... it's graphic design... looks good
for the sake of looking good... I want someone
who see's my work for the first time to right
there decide that they want to be a graphic
designer.
Q. What are the main considerations you take
before starting a design?
G. Color theme, mood, sometimes I start out
with a goal in mind but usually it's "let's see
what happens".
Q. Is there a particular process or path you
follow to get to the end result?
G. Not really, there are looks to what I do so I
must be following a path... it's not conscious.
I've been told that all of my stuff looks the
same... I'm fine with that... Whenever you see a
Dali, you know it's a Dali... No one seems to
have a problem with that.
Q. As it relates to design, are you a Mac or PC
person and why
G. Mac... why drive a GM when you can drive a
Benz. Superior machine, you'll always get the
geeks and nerds with their "You can do so
much more with a PC". I'm sure that's true...
Computers are simply tools... the difference
between MS word and a pencil... It comes
down to the operator. It's just choice, I choose
the superior machine.
