Armin Vit: AIGA San Diego event

Thursday, September 26, 2013

6:30 PM - 9:30 PM

New School of Architecture and Design

1249 F Street


San Diego, CA 92101

There are the lucky ones who, through a combination of talented hands and eyes and brains and hard work, can create dazzling typographic compositions that make designers gasp in jealous awe. Then there are the rest of us.

Armin will show some of the best and worst typography choices he has made over the course of 15 years, from the crappy days of dot-com design to his stint at Pentagram to his own projects at UnderConsideration— most of which have been really very decently good. For the most part.



About Armin.
 Born and raised in Mexico City, Armin is a graphic designer and writer now living in Austin, Texas. He is co-founder of UnderConsideration, a graphic design firm and publishing enterprise all rolled into one. While he has written for most of the well-known trade publications, he is better known for his writing on the blogs that make up the UnderConsideration online network, as well as from the books he has co-authored with his wife and partner, Bryony Gomez-Palacio— their most recent efforts being Graphic Design, Referenced and the self-published Flaunt. Through UnderConsideration’s Department of Design he designs corporate identities, books and web sites for a few clients.
