To Peter,
I was a partner with Tristan Manco in Tijuana Design, Bristol, UK, from 2002-2009. Together we designed Blur´s "Think Tank" album and single covers and the 4 "badmeaningood" album covers.
We worked personally with Banksy, as he was creating the artwork and Steve Lazarides, as he would supply photography of the artwork.
In 2003, when we were working on the Blur´s Think Thank cover, Steve Lazarides would send ud photographic prints of the artworks painted by Banksy in various locations.
These included the Think Tank cover and subsequent singles.
We used the photographs of the different artworks, to determine the final cover artwork.
The final choice was picked by Banksy and Damon Albarn from Blur.
We then used the Couple with Diving Helmet photographs for the graphic design work.
This included the vinyl, cd and promotional items for the release.
Signed Tony Stiles.
