Ellen Lupton’s Thinking with Type

While I’m busy processing my thoughts about the Chinese Design Everyday exhibit, now on its last days (closes April 13) at the Design Exchange in Toronto, I’ll throw this out there.

On a trek through that stretch of Queen St West in Toronto that’s been dubbed the Art & Design District I wandered into the tiny but unusually well stocked Type Books (883 Queen St West), and picked up a few additions for the shelves, one of which was Ellen Lupton’s Thinking with Type. It’s a beautiful book and I think it is an excellent, painless intro to the niceties and deviltries of working with type that even seasoned veterans can get something out of. Check out the companion site: Thinking with Type.
