To Be In Awe...

Marc Atlan was one of the first designers that drew my attention to the Design Industry. The stumble was purely accidental; once upon a time when Poketo apparel was easy enough to find on Gertrude St, I came across an aesthetic, chaotic, typography-based printed shirt. The designer was none other than Marc Atlan. After admiring the design for many hours, I chose to research.


"Marc Atlan is a French born creative director based in Los Angeles, California. He is the founder of “Marc Atlan Design, Inc.” where he conceptualizes and produces ad campaigns and catalogues, logos and brand identities, perfume bottles and packagings, magazine designs as well as store displays and installations."


His work varies from photography-based pieces to minimalist approaches to the Bauhaus inspired to sophisticated typography. Atlan is amazing, to say the least. His diversity of the field is awe-inspiring; it's hard to not be even slightly infatuated.

Atlan's professional website is easy to navigate and represent his minimalist and sophisticated 'nature.' It presents his work with a professional appeal and does not distract his audience from observing his material.
