When Washington Goes BIG
——————————————————————————————————————————
The question as to how government’s most ambitious projects (ex. the Moon landing, Iraq and, ahem, health care) fail or succeed gets explored on the front page of the Washington Post’s Outlook section for their Sunday, 3/21 paper. Working with Kristin Lenz, we took the opportunity to make the headline type the actual illustration for the cover of the print edition (above). The type that I drew all of the hands for is the Post’s very own (and very new) Postoni Display Bold, designed by Richard Lipton and Matthew Carter (!!!) I would hope that in the eyes of Postoni’s creators that no heinous offenses were committed in the appropriation of their fine, fine work.
