Typography Sketchbooks gets into the minds of designers who create typefaces, word images and logos through their private sketchbooks. It's at the heart of all visual communication and is one of the purest forms of design, one that can always be improved and refined. Typography is an obsession for most designers. This event is a chance to talk type with two type fans. An unrestrained and idiosyncratic collection, the book Typography Sketchbooks includes work by boundary-pushing designers including Ivan Chermayeff, Carlos Segua, Milton Glaser, Maira Kalman, Bob Aufuldish, Matthew Carter, Javier Mariscal, Patrick Thomas, Erik Spiekermann, Viktor Nubel, Peter Bilak, and Jean-Baptiste Levee. Design historian Steven Heller and educator Lita Talarico, co-chairs of the MFA Design program at the School of Visual Arts, and designers Travis Cain, Viktor Koen, Matt Luckhurst, Esther K Smith + Dikko Faust (of Purgatory Pie Press), discuss the merits of the graphic designer's typography sketchbook, a creative "work-out" space for generating ideas and drafting unique type that becomes synonymous with brands and institutions around the world.
