i'm sorry, but statements like this make me want to fucking vomit.

this place makes me sick sometimes with the fronting. like everyone is doing these monumental projects always. no you aren't.
you aint brockman, you aint rand, you're a production artist selling booze, magazines and tennis shoes.
that's all this is. if you want to change the face of design, good fucking luck, because there are going to be 10,000 people dragging you down, if you try.
I like Patel, he has a definite style and sticks to it, you may not dig it, but he has clients who feel it and that is all this shit is really about anyway.

Not knowing who Harsh Patel was/is I found his work refreshingly old school and reserved.
I gues you must mean boring = clean, legible, functional. But isn't that what design is all about?

yeah i don't know how people can call themselves art directors with stuff like this... Don't get me wrong, i luv type, but, this is not good. PLEASE. I wouldn't pay him an art director rate. He's a junior

(Jun 8 07, 23:00)Those are the fucking basics. That's what all his shit looks like student work. You're supposed to reach a little higher.

(Jun 9 07, 05:19)interesting. there have been some really good comments in this thread. critical, yet putting out there what is felt to be improved upon.... this is not one of them.
i take it then, DiK is pretty much the higher-reach? that all the best work to look to, thought of as great and truly 'good' design is linked up there?
can you feel the sarcasm? do you see how i am trying to barb you GT_1?
post something with soul. please.

Most people don't change their style for their entire lifetime.
Harsh Patel has not changed the simplicity and thoughtfulness that peppers his work, which I am completely fine with.
(I haven't talked to him, but I'm judging by his work over the years).

I think too many designers forget the true litmus test of good design is to show the work to a non-designer.
What do you think a non-designer would say about this work? BOOOORING.

hellcouncil was something else. pity it's not online anymore.

it's ok if you don't get it.

I think people might appreciate it more if the UI of his portfolios were a little friendlier. It is just a lot of work for what you are viewing.

(Jun 8 07, 20:39)fuck you dobs. look at my screenname.
anyway, i sort of dig Harsh's free spirited work a lot in fact.
it's merely jealousy that's been consuming my tormented soul ever since i lost my viriginity to a 54 year old bearded milkman.

(Jun 9 07, 05:51)so not true.
there's a lot of people that buy this stuff, even though a marginal population, still, in this globalized world, probably more then you'd assume.
it's like art, dig it or not. and that's what makes this world interesting.
oh hear me being moral again.
yuk.

(Jun 9 07, 05:51)You cannot go unpunished GT_1:
1. It's nice you left vowels out of your user name. It would be difficult for you to log in and the pleasure of reading your comments would be lost;
2. It's nice to see that you're pledged to the same democracy that allows you to entitle yourself as a designer, sir, but let me say that it is precisely that line-of-thought that justifies the common voice (which you seem to be so fond of) that says that designers are stupid, ignorants and whores.
3. You are a shame to this once respected profession, like that idiot that walks down hapilly to the bank.
4. I hope you can shove one or two BMW's up your arse. Those cars were made for people like you and they're designed to fit. I hope you have been asked your measures.

I've been wanting to say this for a long long time now. Thank you for the opportunity.
