It specializes in the development of
illustration and graphic projects for editorial
and printed work. It uses digital methods as
well as traditional methods in its creations
which range from industrial design, to
T-shirts and interventions in space.
This agency is a small-scale company
that offers a fresh and original approach
in each of its projects. The variety of
styles and its sense of humor are its most
signifi cant qualities, as well its objective
in creating intelligent, committed, and
relevant design.
SUZIE AND RICHARD HART founded
this South African design studio based
in Durban in 1997. Currently, Roger
Jardine is the third member of this group.
According to Jardine, disturbance “has 11
members and 11 letters in its name. The
studio address is 22 Prains Avenue – which
is twice 11. All this is pure coincidence.
However, disturbance believes in giving
110 percent in everything that it does.”
It has won numerous local and
international prizes and accolades,
which include awards from institutions
such as the D&AD, ADC, One Show,
Communication Arts Design Competition,
and Society of Illustrators. In addition
to creating a fanzine, a restaurant, a
gallery, and designing the fashion label
Home Industries, disturbance has recently
published a compilation of its favorite
work in the book These Are a Few of Our
Favorite Things.
