Following on from the inspiration of Abram Games, Noma Bar has taken the art of embedding double meaning and negative space into his designs and illustrations to another level.
Instead of using an airbrush like Games, Noma’s designs are completed on a computer.
As part of my research, I read a lot. Then I think and do a lot of sketches. I’ll never go to work on the computer unless I have ideas first.
Noma Bar illustrations are extremely clever in that they say a lot with very little. Usually, a few colours and one picture made up of one other element, Noma’s design then shouts the message he wishes to convey in such a simple and clear way, it is genius.
The question is, do you agree with our list of Noma Bar’s best illustrations? Are there any items on the list which you feel shouldn’t be?

#9 Carabiner and Face
With the title having a name with a double meaning this design is really quite something. It is called 'Open Face' which implies the face of the person found in the design and the open cliff face where the Carabiner will be used. Genius!
