Form & Formation

Graphic Designer

Layout Design

The pragmatic idealism of Munari’s “Design as Art,” the seasoned typographic voice of Carter’s “My Life in Typefaces,” and the themes of control and letting go in Burstein’s “4 Lessons in Creativity” are wonderful and needed lessons for even the most experienced designer. Form & Formation brings all of them together and gives each voice a visual space of exploration. Taking cues from the content and tone of each section, the typography and overall design aesthetic blends subtle, traditional, and elegant with bold, modern, and rough. It is a small hardcover artist’s book with medium weight paper hand-bound with metallic thread.
