John Copeland (top 4) and Guus Van Der Heyde (bottom 4) worked together at WRC in the early days. John had worked and studied in London, Guus had trained in Holland and was one of the first designers to graduate from his art school with a specialisation in photography. 
Both were great illustrators, and graphic stylists, producing a wide range of designs in a wide range of styles. John tended towards symbolic and abstracted graphic forms wheras Guus would take up his camera whenever he could combining his elegant photographic compositions with spare typography. 
Both had long careers in tertiary design education post WRC.
