Thank you so much to everyone for your wonderful comments. It's really heartwarming to be reminded of the genuine love for these albums, and their sleeves. There are so many genuinely moving comments, it would be impossible to single out any specifically. I simply thank every single person for their thoughts. I really appreciate them. It's also a reminder of what an absolute privilege it was to work with Nick, John, Simon, Roger and Andy to create the packaging for these milestone LPs. Thank you ... Malcolm Garrett
Hi Malcolm, I just read your comment, after adding mine to the mix. I'm glad to see that you also enjoyed reading viewers comments, just as I did. I was fortunate to meet Duran Duran in the early 80s when they toured Australia, and I agree with how delightful they were off camera. I still cherish my photos from my serendipitous meeting (coincidently staying at the same hotel). 👱❤️
This was an absolutely lovely thing to watch! Thank you so much, Mr. Garrett, for sharing your memories with us. If I may ask...one of the designs you didn't address on the bottom right of the cover (and inside the cover) of 'Rio' are the eyes - one closed, one open. Did you design these as well, or did the band choose them? What, if anything, did they mean? I have a tattoo of an open/closed eye based on these designs, so I'd love to know if they meant something more than just additional graphics.
Malcolm Garrett You are such a big part of the DD story, we / I can’t thank you anywhere near enough for how your designs have shaped our DD lives. We look at , hold, admire these sleeves and especially with the first 3 albums it’s just like an extension of our souls. We salute you sir, thank you 😎😊 Duran Duran forever
im getting my BA in graphic design this december and this video might be the best one posted to the whole of the internet. always loved garrett and the other duran designers, just wish they touched on arcadia's branding.
Though "RIO" continuous to be their most iconic and recognizable album cover for DD but, for me, my favorite DD album cover is "Seven and the Ragged Tiger". There's a map, hieroglyphics, treasure marks, tigers and five men that all could've been in a James Bond movie as leading men. C'mon! It's drooling with danger, intrigue and adventure all on one cover!!! How could you not love it???
When I was 13, I wanted to be a graphic designer, just like Malcolm Garrett. He made me appreciate color and design, fonts and shapes more than anyone in my formative design years.
I love the artwork you created for Duran Duran.What you achieved with the futuristic , glamorous European airline vibe is exactly what I felt when I looked at Duran Duran.
I SAW THEIR CONCERT 23RD JULY IN LUCCA...ITALY IT WAS A DREAM CAME TRUE AFTER 37 YEARS FROM FLAMINIO STADIUM IN ROME. OMG....STILL IN LOVE WITH THEM EVERY DAY MORE ❤️ 💖 ❤️ 💖 ❤️ 💖 ❤️
The Rio and Seven & The Ragged Tiger covers were mysterious, spoke to the music, and reflected modern tastes. The Notorious cover was less dramatic but showed the evolution of the musicians. This artwork was a key component of the whole package and always a pleasure to contemplate.
Malcolm Garrett, lovely chap & incredible talent. Such iconic & unmistakeable Duran Duran iconography. Hopefully he’ll be on board once again for Reportage or other future projects. Great video!
When the “Seven and the Ragged Tiger” album released, I often wondered what the “Seven” referred to in the album title. It was years later that we learned that the “Seven” refers to the five band members and their two band managers. It’s such a great album title! And the design of the album, with that creative treasure map, is just genius. Malcolm’s graphic artwork on the Duran albums is simply brilliant!
I had mentioned this on one of the Facebook posts, but truth be told, it was Malcolm Garrett and his work for Duran Duran that inspired me to go back to school to study graphic design. His work is top notch. Thank you for bringing him forward so that we could hear his story!
Im a duranie for life and graphic designer. I always love the Malcom visual work. Every detail counts to help to the big visual identity of the band ❤.
Wow! As a Duranie and design nerd I can’t get enough of this. I was obsessed with the imagery and design of Malcolm’s work with DD in the 80s. Those printer’s proofs! 😍 Many thanks to Malcolm for sharing these fascinating insights. More please!
my wife {girlfriend at the time} was studying graphic design at Manchester university , and one of her lectures was Malcolm Garrett and the famous Rio sleeve.
This is a fascinating history of the album artwork. Malcom has brilliant ideas. I purchased the reissue of the first record. I am really happy with the purchase. Thank you 😊
Malcolm dear | Without any doubt | with 100% certainty | You are the best designer ever worked on DD covers | and they never reached that level of beauty & precision ever since
Wow wow wow wow wow 🎉🎉🎉 congratulations fella about doing the art work for there first 3 albums really worth waiting to see and hear about Duran Duran album art work I wish I ad my hands on them I would deffo frame them and keep an eye on them and look after them 🎉🎉🎉I've been a die hard Duranie since 1981 was 12 years old now 55 still a die hard Duranie 🎉🎉🎉thx for sharing totally awesome 👍👍👍 Duran Duran best band on planet earth 🌎🌍🌎 luv um cheers 🥂🍷🥂
For me as a teenager in the early to mid-eighties, Malcom's work was peak design. The sleeves of Rio and Seven are equally of their time and absolutely timeless, which is quite an achievement.
The Seven and The Ragged Tiger sleeve cover was always fascinating to me. You definitely created that allure of fantasy and mystery in that design. I enjoyed listening to your explanation of your artistic process.
At 12, I was obsessed with 7 & the Ragged Tiger album, both music and album art; I was reading Susan Cooper's "The Dark is Rising" at the time, and the magic of both melded seamlessly for me. Really shaped my lifelong field of interest in folklore and history.
Mr Garrett's design of the first album is perfect! I fetishised that logo and the chrome strips on the sleeve as a teenager in 1981. They fitted the sound and look of the band to a T. To hear about the idea of an international airline logo and the clean, sharp lines of an aircraft behind the design from the man himself is still thrilling after all this time. Thank you.
Thank you, Dear Sir, for being an inspirational part of my youth! It was your work and other contemporaries that moved me to discover I was a graphic artist, too! Although, I rebelled from art school to pursue my musical side - much like Ferry, Eno and other greats - to some pretty fun yet moderate success! I eventually returned to school to completed my degrees in Graphic Design, through which I make day job living today! And, still write, record and release music, including all the graphical and video production
THIS is the video I've been hoping someone would make. Sooo great to get the story behind some of the design decisions, inspirations, etc. Made my day.
I'm more than 30 years in graphic design and production, and I'm a huge DD fun! For some of the book covers I made, I was inspired by the design of the sleve of Seven and the ragged tiger. I always loved the design of their albums, and I'm really happy that I had a chance to see who the maker was. 😊
This guy shaped my life a lot more than he will *ever* know I'm gonna be seeing this video in my head next time I wear my concert shirt Edited to add, I have always wondered how it happened that Patrick Nagel's art had all those amazing Rio lines. Kind of evocative of the lines in a song. And Keith the Cartographer is one of my new favorite people
I always loved your sleeves, whichever band it was for, but your work for DD was epic. I loved the consistency of each single release to its parent album, whilst still retaining 3 distinct styles for each album. I always bought the singles in 12” version for two reasons - the extended mixes, but also the larger artwork. Sir, you are a legend!
Seeing the sleeve designs for the singles and extended 12" sleeves that accompanied the debut album was enthralling - those minor changes in fonts and idents blew my mind back then. Timeless design and concept.
Malcolm, as a graphic designer myself, I’ll say that you are one of my chief inspirations! I always loved your unique typography, colors, and clean lines! Thank you for your inspiration!
Album art is something I always enjoyed poring over. Sad to say that is mostly gone now. I love all the Duran Duran albums and their covers. Very good work on these.
You are amazing, this is amazing, and all of your work is utterly brilliant. Thank you very much, and thanks for this video!!! I love your work. Thanks for talking through your creative processes for the album covers.
Thank you for this wonderful inspiration! I love to hear that the Rio model didn't even know she was on their cover. I always thought she was one of their many lovers. 😂
This man and his work inspired me to become a graphic designer - cannot imagine any other career now. I visited his then company in 1987 (Assorted Images) with some of my fellow design students and got a full tour etc. Malcolm was not there on that day, but the other designers could not have been nicer, and showed us unseen (to me) bits of DD design like the Arena boardgame - obvs my student mind was totally blown. I had the pleasure of creating one of the animated video backdrops for the All You Need is Now tour in 2011, but that would not have happened without MG's inspiration to me.
This was awesome. Malcolm was a key component to the bands visuals. Would love to see the band work with him again. And thank you malcolm for your artistry
RIO is one of the best album covers EVER! I have that art framed and prominently displayed in my man cave...it has come to symbolize everything that was cool about the '80's.
This mysterious artwork reflected the music, musicians, and modern art tastes. Rio and Seven and The Ragged Tiger are among the very best music artwork. It is a pleasure to contemplate the covers' intentions. I'm sure DD paid up for Malcom's artwork but that just made the pie bigger for everyone. The Notorious cover reflected a major shift in the music and darker times (a major contrast to prior works).
Malcom Garrett is a fantastic artist and designer. I was drawn to his artwork for Duran Duran from that first album release already. It just looked so fresh and beautiful. Malcom Garrett is among my favorite designers of the era, along with Peter Saville and Vaughan Oliver. They all are a huge influence on late 20th century graphic design, and specifically music sleeve design.
Wow, amazing to listen to. He did shape the way I saw and see art work. So many of my exercise books from school were covered with bits and pieces of what he had created. Too bad this interview was obviously based on the current rereleases. I could have listened to him for another hour talking about the sleeves for "My Own Way", ARENA, SO RED THE ROSE, ... and all the other singles he did or didn't design.
I loved it! It’s very interesting to hear about the graphic design of the albums. I, also, love the blue background, which gives the video a graphic feel.
So informative & enjoyable. Interesting that Malcolm mentioned "New Sounds New Style" magazine connection, as "The Face" and "Smash Hits" mags seem to be referenced more often when discussing 80s music. Thanks so much Malcolm for contributing to the aesthetic appeal of Duran Duran. I always appreciated your album covers and could see which direction you were coming from with the various style elements. I'm looking at my Patrick Nagel print right now...which I was fortunate to discover in a charity store many years ago. I even have pink & white tulips in a vase placed next to the print...which is my nod to the "Careless Memories" video! 👱❤️
This was very interesting to see. I've been listening to Duran Duran since the 80's. I would love to see them in concert someday. Have a great day ❤️🙂⚘️.
Really interested in this, Malcolm Garrett was a huge influence on my graphic design work, his use of fonts, polygons, an overall theme and exploring new creative strategies , using art and design as a powerful marketing tool
Thank you for sharing this and your talents. I have to say the first 3 covers that your were involved with are the best, particularly Seven and the Ragged Tiger - I remember being fascinated with the cover as a kid while listening to Tiger Tiger..mesmerising :) !
Nice work! Part of the inspiration of why I became a graphic designer. Shame I have never been able to get a client this amazing though. I can never get anyone to pay for chrome foil 😆
I'm sure he inspired a lot of people to become graphic designers. I'm not, but when these came out, I definitely spent a lot of time creating doodles inspired by his work with Duran Duran.

There are so many genuinely moving comments, it would be impossible to single out any specifically. I simply thank every single person for their thoughts. I really appreciate them.
It's also a reminder of what an absolute privilege it was to work with Nick, John, Simon, Roger and Andy to create the packaging for these milestone LPs.
Thank you ... Malcolm Garrett
Hi Malcolm, I just read your comment, after adding mine to the mix. I'm glad to see that you also enjoyed reading viewers comments, just as I did. I was fortunate to meet Duran Duran in the early 80s when they toured Australia, and I agree with how delightful they were off camera. I still cherish my photos from my serendipitous meeting (coincidently staying at the same hotel).

He's very humble, and gives praise to other designers on sleeves he didn't do, I like him
I was obsessed with the imagery, fonts and icons of the first 3 albums as a kid. Very interesting video to see all these years later.
Malcolm Garrett
You are such a big part of the DD story, we / I can’t thank you anywhere near enough for how your designs have shaped our DD lives.
We look at , hold, admire these sleeves and especially with the first 3 albums it’s just like an extension of our souls.
We salute you sir, thank you 😎😊 Duran Duran forever
im getting my BA in graphic design this december and this video might be the best one posted to the whole of the internet. always loved garrett and the other duran designers, just wish they touched on arcadia's branding.

I love 7 the music and how they look
When I was 13, I wanted to be a graphic designer, just like Malcolm Garrett. He made me appreciate color and design, fonts and shapes more than anyone in my formative design years.
Malcom is the best designer, I'm so impressed him giving genuine love to other artists who are not as good as he.
I always
Loved his work with DD, including the Arena album and the Arcadia project. I wish they worked more with him as his work is iconic.
I love the artwork you created for Duran Duran.What you achieved with the futuristic , glamorous European airline
vibe is exactly what I felt when I looked at Duran Duran.
What an insightful and gracious retrospective of Duran Duran's iconic album designs. I wish this discussion were longer.
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen, since buying listening and staring at every album since 1982
When I heard that first album at the age of 12 it was magic.I had never heard anything like it in my life. They are still magic to me.
I SAW THEIR CONCERT 23RD JULY IN LUCCA...ITALY IT WAS A DREAM CAME TRUE AFTER 37 YEARS FROM FLAMINIO STADIUM IN ROME.
OMG....STILL IN LOVE WITH THEM EVERY DAY MORE ❤️ 💖 ❤️ 💖 ❤️ 💖 ❤️
Not only was this great info for DD fans, it is a master class in creating a brand. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing @Malcolm Garrett. Absolutely fascinating to Duran Duran fans, amazing to know the thought process to the artwork. Just fabulous.

A great video. In the 42 years I've owned my original Rio album, I have never noticed that the picture wraps around the sleeve.
I'm fifty four and a lifelong fan and I never noticed either
my wife {girlfriend at the time} was studying graphic design at Manchester university , and one of her lectures was Malcolm Garrett and the famous Rio sleeve.
Absolutely incredible band 😎
This is a fascinating history of the album artwork. Malcom has brilliant ideas.
I purchased the reissue of the first record. I am really happy with the purchase. Thank you 😊

Cool! Nice knowing where that awesome artwork came from!

Notorious is a wonderful album with beautiful artwork - Timeless & Iconic
This guy shaped my life a lot more than he will *ever* know

Edited to add, I have always wondered how it happened that Patrick Nagel's art had all those amazing Rio lines. Kind of evocative of the lines in a song.
And Keith the Cartographer is one of my new favorite people
Rio is simply the best album cover ever. Love the typography of the cover and sleeve. Simply perfect. Top top man!!
MY FAVORITE ALBUM COVER IS ACTUALLY SEVEN AND THE RAGGED TIGER...
Note that Cuba is not in South America Lol. Amazing work. I'm a total graphic design geek. Great video.
Yes, of course! I was naturally taking my inspiration a little bit broader with both Central and South American influence. 🙂

This is a great introduction to the thought process behind some of the best imagery and album artwork around definitely more of these BTS please!!
Thanks Malcom to make Duran Duran's albuns pop more ❤
I became a fan of Duran Duran back in the 80s and I loved the album art, so thank you Malcolm!!!
Loving this designer!!! 🧑🎨 Enjoy the backstory of the graphic design process for the first few albums!!!
Malcolm, as a graphic designer myself, I’ll say that you are one of my chief inspirations! I always loved your unique typography, colors, and clean lines! Thank you for your inspiration!
Album art is something I always enjoyed poring over. Sad to say that is mostly gone now. I love all the Duran Duran albums and their covers. Very good work on these.
❤Thank you for sharing that impressive video!! I watch and listen with big attention!!
This is a fantastic video! Such a great explanation from the maker of these iconic sleeves!
Malcolm, you are an amazing designer. Duran Duran are my favourite band since I was a young kid in the 1980's. ❤😊
Great video. Thank you so much for posting this!
You are amazing, this is amazing, and all of your work is utterly brilliant. Thank you very much, and thanks for this video!!! I love your work. Thanks for talking through your creative processes for the album covers.

It's great to see the face behind some of Duran's album covers x
Major influence on my design career thank you sir ;)
Awesome video explanations from Malcom Garrett. I love smart graphics, Duran Duran has always looked amazing on their audio products.
Nice work! Part of the inspiration of why I became a graphic designer. Shame I have never been able to get a client this amazing though. I can never get anyone to pay for chrome foil 😆
I still have my copy of New Styles New Sounds!!!
Che persona carina...possiede la semplicità dei grandi.
Love your work! So iconic! I have all of your original album sleeves! In art school in the late 80s I used the sleeves as examples of design.
Legend Malcom Garret and Duran Duran !!!❤❤❤❤❤
I'm sure he inspired a lot of people to become graphic designers. I'm not, but when these came out, I definitely spent a lot of time creating doodles inspired by his work with Duran Duran.
Brilliant interview and video. Learnt new things today about the best band in the world
Great job, Malcom ❤
