Aisha Franz

Some of my favorite illus­tra­tions come from the busi­ness pub­li­ca­tions. They are imag­i­na­tive and weird, because hon­est­ly, if they weren’t, it would be illus­tra­tion after illus­tra­tion of men in suits shak­ing hands. And who wants to see that? Not this lady!

Aisha Franz is an illus­tra­tor in Ger­many who does a lot of work for Bloomberg mag­a­zine (near­ly all of the images from this post are from it). Obvi­ous­ly, you can enjoy these images in their own right, as they are dri­ven by con­cept rather than lit­er­al inter­pre­ta­tion of an arti­cle. I always won­der if the peo­ple who read these arti­cles seri­ous­ly appre­ci­ate these illus­tra­tions as much as cre­ative folk do.
