For my critical studies brief i have been asked to chose a designer from the surface design Field and look at who or what influences their work.At the moment i am very interested in the work of Dan Funderburgh a Brooklyn based wallpaper designer and artist,i have already mentioned him in my blog.His designs are funky and dynamic and he lists some of his influences as follows:
the Olympic Mountains in Seattle
Lego instruction sheets
Oriental rugs
60's American Op Art
14th century Moorish mosaics
Charley Harper
i found this imformation about Dan on www.designspongeonline.com and blog.fluidesign.com.
