Citroen Saxo (1996-2003)
Many parellels exist between music and visual design, whether it be in the area of theory, process, history, or even performance. There are, however, times when the two disciplines intersect.
After reading the book "The Devil's Horn", in which author Michael Segell chronicles the dynamic history of the saxophone, I can understand why the instrument has become a ubiquitous visual icon in print advertising and branding across Western Europe over the past 50 years.
The STEP Design 100 competition and annual is highly regarded within the graphic design industry. Thousands of entries are received and judged by a panel of five designers, and the top 100 are featured in the over-sized March/April issue.
Now that STEP is part of the graphics.com network, however, we wanted to offer the larger graphics community an opportunity to participate in the selection process.
