On Publishing: Graphic Designers Who Publish (January 2021) is a new project by Jon Sueda, Will Ruby, and Chris Hamamoto, featuring interviews with graphic designers who involve themselves with publishing as part of their practice. Featuring 24 imprints, the interviews inquire about the motivation and challenges of this endeavor and include a range of studios from around the world. Happy to be in such good company, along with Danielle Aubert, Colpa Press, Emigre, Gato Negro, and Kristian Henson, among others.
