Neville Brody of Research Studios is no stranger to the international design scene. Join us at TYPO San Francisco to hear his insights!
We are thrilled Juliette Bellocq will join us from Los Angeles to speak at TYPO San Francisco! We look forward to hearing from Juliette whose design background spans a variety of fields including education, nonprofit and culture.
We are excited to have eclectic designer Morag Myerscough of London’s Supergroup speak at TYPO San Francisco.
A day with with Michael B Johnson from pixar studios, Joachim Sauter from Art+Com, Gary Hustwit, Tim Fendley, Lawrence Weiner, UX designer Tom Uglow, Susana Rodríguez de Tembleque and Design icon Neville Brody.
Intrigued by the title, I was totally bewildered as to what the next hour in the Logan Hall would bring. Not only was Julian Zimmermann going to showcase the work created for his client King Bansah, but the King himself was in residence to talk us through his story.
After some introduction and teasing from Erik Spiekermann, Chip Kidd stepped on stage. He thanked Erik, and announced that “You make me feel like Lady Gaga, only with bigger breasts.” What was to follow was an hour of impeccable comic timing, dramatic pauses and eyebrow raises, he had the audience in stitches with barely a handful of words.
OK this is the one everyone has been waiting for. Chip Kidd. He is in the same hero category as Neville Brody, David Carson and Jonathan Barnbrook – but in my opinion he is in a league of his own. There doesn’t seem to be the usual love him or hate him divide with Chip. You just love him.
Chip Kidd and Neville Brody spotted at TYPO London 2011.
Arriving at #typo11, as a non designer and coming from the advertising and social media industry, I was expecting to be challenged by some hardcore type nerd lingo and design-geek dialect. But I found a real sense of the familiar in the language Jeff Faulkner used in his talk ‘Extraordinary Machines’.
Morag Myerscough is one of a kind, her talk was as colourful as her work as was her outfit. In contrast to Jeff Faulkner’s talk it was about the user experience in the physical space. I found it very inspiring, uplifting and easy to relate to due to her enthusiastic and personal presentation.
