If you head over to the POWELL’S BOOKS Bookstore Blog then you can check out a really great interview they did with your favorite Penguin Random House Book Designer, Chip Kidd. Powell’s Books operates four stores in Portland, Oregon, and then another one in nearby Beaverton. They are also known worldwide as an excellent source for rare and hard to find books, but they also keep everything in stock that’s super-current.
So yeah, speaking of “current books”, Chip Kidd (in association with TED TALKS) just published a brand-new book titled, “JUDGE THIS, a TED Original” (144 Pages, Simon & Schuster/TED). The book is an exercise on what makes good clarity and/or mystery in Graphic Design that we all see everyday and sometimes take for granted.
