Parallel Strokes

parallel_strokes.jpg

A great looking book by friend Ian Lynam has just been published. "Parallel Strokes is a collection of interviews with twenty-plus contemporary typeface designers, graffiti writers, and lettering artists around the world. The book is introduced with a comprehensive essay charting the history of graffiti, its relation to type design, and how the two practices relate in the wider context of lettering." Go order it from the website. A bargain at 20 US dollars with free international shipping.
