Chip Kidd’s book on Peanuts from a few years back drew both adoration and derision (I fall into the former camp, but that’s because I don’t see it as The One Way Peanuts Should Be Seen as much as An Interesting Alternative Way Of Looking At It; there are so many hundreds of Peanuts books, we certainly have room for that!)<\/p>\n
Well, here’s Mr. Kidd, aggressively styled himself, talking about how he approaches book design. None of it is about the Peanuts book specifically, but some of it is relevant to how he handed it, I think. (It’s a TED talk, for those of you to whom that means something.)<\/p>\n
