We appreciate Jeffrey Deitch’s choice for rebranding the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, designed by Chermayeff & Geismar in 1984.

Geez, we picked this up awhile ago and thought it was well worth a post. It’s an exhibition catalog for a Claes Oldenburg exhibit at MoMA, designed by Chermayeff & Geismar. So simple and direct, just the way we like it.

Always on the look out for more Hellerware. We came across these rare clear Heller Maximugs. Also a great little tidbit on Vignelli in the kitchen courtesy of Edible Manhattan. He shops for his own stuff on Ebay!

Recently we picked up a copy of Subway, by Paul Shaw. It’s a really comprehensive look at the history of the NYC subway system’s use of Helvetica. It’s filled with great photo’s of MTA signage through the years, and is really well written. Highly recommended.
