Conversations with Peter Mayer

Published by Gustavo Gili, this book compiles three conversations held at three specific points in time (1973, 2000, and 2008).
Conversations between publisher Peter Mayer—who headed Penguin Books and currently chairs The Overlook Press—and Milton Glaser, who is arguably the world’s most famous designer thanks to his Bob Dylan poster and his “I Love NY” logo, both of which are essential works in the history of design.

It covers topics such as the unwritten code of the art of communication, excellence in the use of typography, custom-designed typefaces, and personalized typefaces in nearly 30 different magazines.
Laura Meseguer, a well-known typographer and professor in the Master’s in Graphic Design program at ESdesign, guides us on how to successfully apply typography, regardless of the publication’s subject matter, and offers many tips for getting started in magazine design from a typographic perspective.
