Peter Saville had already established a reputation
for his design work with Factory. When DinDisc offered him the job of art director
he duly took them up on the offer. OMD's debut album was packaged in a stunning die-cut
grid sleeve - an idea inspired by a grille in a Covent Garden clothes shop. Variations on the grid design also featured in press
ads and in the design of OMD's stage set itself.
