funkaholic Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 as he said, it could be a blessing in disguise, there work for 4 or so years has been god awful. lets hope they come back better. they did some fantastic pices, there logo & name alone was brilliant the book 50/50 but very interesting non the less.

Guest greenbank Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 they haven't done anything that amazing for a few years now so maybe it's a good thing. build and universal everything are carrying on with similarly excellent work and hopefully new DR will restart with a bang and back to their old quality.

Caretstik Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I don't think I dislike any of their record artwork I've seen. I particularly love 'Lifestyles of the Laptop Café', great design. And iirc they even did an album cover for The Wedding Present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 http://www.sheffieldtelegraph.co.uk/news/D...oors.4929176.jp "HAILED as one of Sheffield's modern-day success stories after building up an international reputation, the Designers Republic has gone out of business. Its offices at the Workstation closed last week with nine staff made redundant. The company is expected to go into liquidation but founder Ian Anderson has bought back the name and the assets and plans to carry on as tDR in the future." Really enjoyed their work on the Wipeout games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
