Print Design
Who the heck is Fabien Barral?
I'm slightly depressed. It seems as though, at every turn, I come upon a designer whose work knocks me into next week. This time it's Fabien Barral, a guy who claims to be living in the middle of the French countryside—no comment. Seriously though, his deft mix of typography and old/new design elements is very interesting. Another one for my “when I grow up I wanna design like” list.

Your thoughts of Fabien's work echo my thoughts of your work the first time I began visiting pageplane.
I wonder who is on this guy's "when I grow up" list?

Excellent John. I am encouraged to know there is at least one other person who suffers from the same mental illness. :-)

It is me ;) Thanks a lot for the post that makes me smile... especially the "Okay Fabien Barral, you're starting to get on my nerves...".
So, I am simply a graphic designer, working in agency for years, and I was bored with clients, i get freelance and I started with my wife a workshop of wall stickers and mounted pictures : www.harmonie-interieure.com
And as I ma passionate by print design and always think images talk much that words, I also create and run www.graphic-exchange.com
Now, have a nice week end, and happy to be in your "when i grow up" list... there are so much people on mine...

YOU’RE REAL!?
Thanks for the post Fabien. I saw the graphics exchange—you have a wonderful sense of design. I will be recommending (stealing) many links from your site in the months to come.
