Interesting, although do you think it will generate the same level of interest? I mean there are so many 'BIG' agencies out there, and PR wise I haven't heard much from them I just wonder if the Attik are still held in high regard?!

Maybe, Maybe Not...I guess times have changed since their first series of books. Back then they were ground breaking. We shall see :) Its sure enough got enough print processes and stocks in there to melt any good designers eyes.

I hope it says something, as the book is an excellent platform to do so, I do hope it isn't just a collection of overproduced, abstract, design gratifications!
Looking forward to it's release, I remember seeing Noise 3.5 at Uni, and remember thinking wow... cool! these days, however I want more for my money!

I've always felt Attik are (and have always been) only ever a clone of whichever studio's style is flavour of the month/year. Its probably not a bad business strategy... let other creative minds do the difficult groundwork to pioneer a new fresh style of design, then digest it, clone it, maximise its commerciality and sell it on to your own paying clients... I have never been able to respect them as creatives inventors. This Noise book has always seemed to me to be their attempt to bolt-on some of the credibility that they wish was attributable to their commercial work.

I know they use many freelance creatives and illustrators to contribute to Attik 5. It isn't just people working in Attik.

Attik, TDR and Airline Industries [I think was their name, from DC] were the leaders of the heavily layered, busy, future-looking studios when I was coming out of art school...
Attik has done some brilliant work and like TDR, I'll always respect them for what they've done... it was a magical time and place, it was all so happening, layer upon layer, the propensity of their density was staggering... but, times change and I can't say that type of work excites me anymore...

It's a bit cynical if you ask me. Used to be lots of talented designers that built the reputation. Now it's just been sold to Dentsu
making the owners shed-loads they still need to look 'cool' to probably keep the deal sweet and cash the big cheques in.
