RICHARD TURLEY | OFFSET 2014

Former OFFSETTERS will know that by-and-large, we’re not suity people. But if ever there was someone who’d make us think again about slapping on some cufflinks and doing up a double windsor, it’s the guy who made business cool. Creative Director of Bloomberg Businessweek, Turley (along with editor Josh Tyrangiel), is proving that print isn’t dead – not if you do it right. Immediately following his hire in 2011, Turley, a graduate of the Guardian’s art desk, brought in boldly coloured infographics, concept driven, dramatic covers and laced the mag with an irreverent dose of pop-culture. He made Businessweek one of the most strikingly visual magazines on the ‘serious’ shelf. His work had now been lovingly transitioned to iPad – the Businessweek app is glorious. We’re pretty sure that he’s not really suity either.
