Titans of Type

Design #240

Befriend history's most influential type designers. I study their lives, careers, and influence in search of ideas you can apply to your own work. "When you are trying to teach the great concepts at work it helps to tie them into the lives and personalities of the people who developed them. I think that you learn economics better if you make Adam Smith your friend. That sounds funny, making friends among the eminent dead, but it is way better than just giving the basic concepts." - Charlie MungerTitans of Type is a masterclass in the history of graphic design, type design, and printing.
