Established in Sheffield in 1986 by Ian Anderson, The Designers Republic has grown from a cult design group into an internationally influential phenomenon. Famous for its subversive power and unique sense of humour, their work is one of the most distinctive bodies of graphic design on the global scene. Brain-aided Design[trademark] is the long-anticipated first compilation of their work past, present and future. The ultimate Designers Republic book, it spans early music industry graphics including sleeves and identity design for the Sheffield label Warp, through work for a diverse range of clients such as MTV, Adidas, Sony, JVC, Polygram and Swatch. In 1994 Emigre magazine devoted a whole issue to The Designers Republic which has now become a collector's item. With special features such as UV vamish and TDR's trademark special metallics and fluorescents, this extraordinary book is already a must-have for many.
