what?!!
I didn't know.
That's very sad, a true british design legend. My friend had the honour of working with him recently on a children's art book. It shows he carried on with great creativity right until the end!
A hero.

"Many books written on visual matters are authored by those who analyse rather than axperience... They are concerned with the mechanics rather than the thoughts, with the match rather than the fire.
This book attempts to open windows to glimpse views rather than dissect the pictures on the wall. To look at things from unlikely angles... The book has no thesis, is neither a whodunnit nor a how-to-do-it, has no beginning, middle or end. It's a journey without a destination."
Hope your final destination is as wonderful as the windows of perception you opened for me, Mr Fletcher!

A real loss to the industry.
Original thinking and wit that always put a smile on your face.
A true great., up with Rand and Bass IMO.
"any one visual problem has an infinite number of solutions; that many are valid; that solutions ought to derive from subject matter; that the designer should have no preconceived graphic style."
So true.Rest in Peace Mr Fletcher

A bloody shame, The Art of Looking Sideways is one of the best books out there for ANYONE to read, and his death is a real real shame for the world and everyone in it. Thank you AF
