When spending the week about thinking of listening to type, David Carson immediately came to mind. His work in deconstructionism to me screams listening to type. This blog post was found in a book about the work of Carson called "The End Of Print: The Grafik Design of David Carson". It is a design for Fox Sports net. I can just hear the crowd screaming a countdown, can't you? Even though his designs are not for everyone, I like to take a break from the norm time to time and check out his work. The deconstruct of the numbers is what really brought me into this image.

This is a AGI Congress and exhibit poster done by Staff Geissbuhler who studied at the Basil School of design. I found this image in the book Graphic Design Referenced by Bryony Gomez-Palacio and Armin Vit. This was chosen by the authors to represent some of Geissbuhler's better works. I found the composition interesting because of its positive and negative spacing. The big bold sans serif type, with the image of the chariot racer and horses makes it intriguing to me. This was designed in 2005.

This is a Swiss inspired design from an art show brochure. I have always enjoyed the simplicity of Swiss design. The sans serif type which was popular during that era is prominently displayed flush left.

This was an article that I found in Women's Health magazine. It talks about how popular women in society are going vegan. The type is mixed between a serif and sans serif typeface. The title page has a large V on it in yellow. Usually yellow wouldn't be a first choice in color because of its contrast, but with the drop shadow it works quite well. The opposite page carries a four column recipe for butternut squash. It is the imagery that really pulled me into the article.
