Fresher Styles for Web Designers

We're proud to be included in a new book, Fresher Styles for Web Designers, More Eye Candy from the Underground by Curt Cloninger. The chapter we're featured in is called "Latest Modern Style". We particularly like Curt's description of the kind company website: "The contrast of understated typeface and overstated type size creates an arresting tension - kind of like whispering loudly". Well said.

STEP's Annual Field Guide to Emerging Talent, 2008

We're included in STEP's Emerging Talent List, 2008. "Their website devoted to Alvin Lustig reveals a commitment to design history couched in a firm understanding of how the new - or not so new anymore - media will serve us all in communicating and educating. They are not prettifying designers, but designer/authors with a true vision." - Steven Heller
