Alan Gerald Fletcher
September
27, 1931 – September 21, 2006
Mr. Fletcher was a
highly regarded British graphic designer. He worked with many companies some of
which are Pirelli, Penguin books and Olivetti. Mr. Fletcher studied his craft
at four art schools from 1953 – 1956, Hammersmith School of Art, Central School
of Art, Royal School of Art and Yale School of Art and Architecture at Yale University.
Mr. Fletcher not only worked, as a graphic designer, but wrote several books
about graphic design and visual thinking. When Alan Fletcher passed away “The
Daily Telegraph” wrote the following statement, describing his career; "The most highly regarded graphic designer of his
generation, and probably one of the most prolific".
I like his comment on sleeping ...ideas outflanking the sentinels of common sense...
