For the Love of Type

plates_design-letters

It is no secret that I love typography – in fact, it’s the reason I went to design school. Naturally, I fell in love with this collection from Design Letters featuring the typography, hand drawn in 1937, by the world renowned Danish Architect Arne Jacobsen. If you love type, you should love this too. If you don’t love type, fuck off and go buy your dishes at IKEA.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
