Steven Bonner is an incredible
resource. His
talents never cease to amaze us, ranging from typography to illustration and
graphic design. He can even create a custom font. Below
we’ve posted examples of his work from advertising, book publishing, and editorial.
We are showcasing a recent project Steven did with the Digital Agency of the Year, Work Club. He developed illustrations for an animation and a typeface for ‘Ballantines 12 Year Old’, a premium blended Scotch whiskey. He illustrated the seven main tasting notes as illuminated letters, each letter telling the story of its own flavor, and the illustrations were then animated as part of an introductory story. He also designed a custom typeface which the viewer could use to create their own personalized Facebook cover image. The typeface has the option of being simple or ornate, where you can mix and match letters to create a personal logotype.
Steven is a popular
book cover illustrator. He is able to design just the right treatment
for book titles! He can also complete an accompanying illustration as he did
with The Little Shadows.
Editorial illustration and title
lettering are a big part of Steven's work. He has worked with various publications
over the years, including GQ, Esquire, Wired, The New York Times, and Boston
magazine amongst others. A recent feature in Germany’s Hohe Luft Magazine let
Steven develop an illustration that referenced the article's theme of egos and
self-importance. ‘Ich’ means ‘Me’ in German, so he thought it might be quite fitting
to draw the word as a big neon sign, symbolizing someone's desire to be in the
spotlight. This illustration may come off simple, but Steven had a lot of fun!
