He was born in London and after finishing school he successfully gained a place to study art at Hornsey School of Art and the London College of printing where he now has a place as visiting professor after college he went onto create record covers with Rocking Russian a design agency founded in the punk and new wave era. In 1980 he joined stiff records a label formed at the outset of the punk rock boom. His vision and creativity led to his appointment as an art director at fetish records an independent label where he went onto produce some of his most iconic and removable work.
In 1981 he became the art director of The Face a magazine with whom he stayed for 5 years until 1986 when he joined arena Men's style magazine. In 1988 an exhibition of his work was displayed at the V & A Museum to coincide with The Graphic Language of Neville Brody his first monograph which went on to become the worlds best selling design book.

| His Book |
His studio was renamed in 1994 to Research Studios at the same time of his release of his second book.
Major clients of his have included Sony PlayStation BBC and mainstream newspapers The Guardian and The Times, his branding's have included Kenzo perfumes.
He has produced groundbreaking work for fuse by font shop a company which Brody was a partner of. His most recent work include his new book Neville Brody and exhibitions including one at the Rocker gallery in Tokyo.
He has pushed to the limit with his work not only his own visual communication but the worlds, his work as a designer is summed up as being an open minded statement only completed when the person looking at it has reached his or her own conclusion, which is the basis of Art. His work is exceptionally ground breaking which is my attraction to this great designer.
