Book By Its Cover

1.30.09

Wasn’t this week’s posts great? I think my parents did an excellent job. Thanks so much guys! Keep up with them on their sites here and here.

I also wanted to invite everyone to the finale party for Design By the Book next Thursday. Design by the Book is a project I was involved in with four other artists sponsored by the New York Public Library and Design Sponge. Each of us went to the library to find inspiration for a new design and it was all chronicled through a series of video episodes which you can watch here. Well, the project is coming to an end- it was so much fun!- so we are having a big final party and episode four screening at the library. Not only is it in the beautiful library, yes, the huge one with the lions out front on 5th Ave., but the bakery Baked is going to be providing delicious snacks. Plus there are going to be a bunch of book raffles! If you are in the NYC area you should come!

To get more information and rsvp just go here. See you there!

Yes, I loved your parent’s choices. It was interesting to see how their taste could have possibly effected your aesthetic and style. I can see where you came from for sure. My mom was an illustrator who did work for the kinds of places I now work with…we’re all apples from a family tree. See you next week at the library Julia. XO.
