Book Cover and Interior Design, Research

Special commemorative book of SVA’s MFA Design program’s 25-year journey, for which I designed the cover. Under the creative direction of Tim Cohan, and in collaboration with Wiebke Meyer-Lüters and Mingxuan Shen, we created this book from scratch – acting not only as designers, but as editors, researchers, proof-readers, color-correctors, and as our our photo and production departments. A true labor of love for the program which helped shape us, and its remarkable founders Steven Heller and Lita Talarico.
