Storm Thorgerson’s most iconic album covers

Storm Thorgerson (28 February 1944 – 18 April 2013) was “the best album designer in the world” according to the writer Douglas Adams and the British graphic designer behind some of the most memorable album covers of all time, including Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon.

The designer also created artwork for bands and musicians including Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel and Muse over his 40 year career. Thorgerson began his career with UK design group Hipgnosis, founded in the late 1960s, and his distinctive style made him one of the industry’s most recognisable artists.
