I was just wondering which you people thought was better.

[pekrock]

i may have said technical but i meant both. simple great pieces are great, but techincal shit puts a tingle down my spine.

unless I can read that technical shit, its not big on me...

[Ceso One SAF]

both

[Abracadabra]

LESS IS MORE

give me a well executed simple over a spaghetti ass piece of shit any day

[imported_evilistic]

im going to have to agree with ceso.i love big public simples that are funky and catch the eye but i also love a berner thats complicated as hell but thats theres still letter form still there no spaghetti type stuff

[Fox Mulder]

who cares? was this really worthy of its own thread?

[devosity]

depends, a simple with a mad as inside shit on a tech style but a tech style shits on a poorly don't unclean simple style with a basic 5 or 6 color inside. i do basic with decent insides.

[JuSt 1]

i dont like when shit is TOO simple, but i hate when writers try and pass wak designs off as graff. sure...some it looks hot, but come on...we all know when theres no letters in there....

i prefer the simple. i've been trying out the "tech" style for my last couple sketches, and they are so easy to make look like any other tech piece, i dont think they look good anyways. but a simple piece, you gotta have good form for it to stand out. i prefer simple anyways

[ASER1NE]

whatever looks dope to me

it's like red wine vs. white wine

there's a time and place for both, and personal preferences may differ.

the only truth ... you need and understanding of simple before moving into tech.

^^^^^^^ You read my mind sir and/or madam.... hah.

ha!

more like 'bro'

ok?

I like both simple and tech graffiti, the big thing to me is that i must be able to read it no matter how tech it is.If i cant read shit then i usually dont like it.

anything piece that looks good and fucks up my vision is mad cool or makes me actually study the bastard is okay but sometimes the simple shit is beast just bcuz of its simplicity...

[taxer]

if you cant read it, whats the point?

[zen]

how can you choose between the two? shame on you all. shame shame shame. A true graffiti artist loves and respects all aspects of graffiti and their merits.

i second that............

its all in the letters,if the piece has good leter form its dope simple or tech..but i hate those wild style pieces with horrible letter form where you can make out 6-7 names...

I love simple styles but too simple is not good. My favourite style is semi wild style. Like can2, Giant, swet ect.. I love really complicated pieces if they don't go over the top with the colours. Wrong colour combinations or too many colours can ruin a peice. To me the best 'tech' peices are the types that just use a few colours. I don't care if I can read it not as long as it looks cool, but then again when writers try to pass some maze of spaghetti style unreadaple shit of as letters thats not cool. The bottom line is you can get shitty simples and mad tech peices and vice versa, it all depends on how it's executed.

Personally, I feel that all stuff is good if the letters rock. I've seen way too many tech pieces where all the bits coming off the letters just mask a wack style. Check Danish graff for what I would deem to be good.
