(From Wikipedia, I donated) Peter Andrew Saville CBE (born 9 October 1955) is an English art director and graphic designer. He became prominent for the many record sleeves he designed for Factory Records, which he co-founded in 1978 alongside Tony Wilson and Alan Erasmus.

Peter Saville designed many record sleeves for Factory artists, most notably for Joy Division and New Order. Influenced by fellow student Malcolm Garrett, who had begun designing for the Manchester punk group Buzzcocks and by Herbert Spencer's Pioneers of Modern Typography, Saville was inspired by Jan Tschichold, chief propagandist for the New Typography. According to Saville: "Malcolm had a copy of Herbert Spencer's Pioneers of Modern Typography. The one chapter he hadn't reinterpreted in his work was the cool, disciplined "New Typography" of Tschichold and its subtlety appealed to me, and I found a parallel in it for the New Wave that was evolving out of Punk."
