Nice to see a mention to WTW in the article about indie publications business models. Connection with the readers matters, and is at the heart of the all publishing. eyeondesign.aiga.org/are-membership…

เคยฟังไอเดียเกี่ยวกับ Project นี้ผ่านๆ เมื่อหลายปีที่แล้ว จนกระทั่งได้มาคุยกับคนทำ เพิ่งรู้ว่า นี่เป็น Design Project ที่ละเอียดดีมาก เริ่ม ตั้งแต่ Typeface ที่ใช้ในหนังสือก็คือออกแบบมาสำหรับอันนี้ชื่อตัว Lava, แค่ฟอนต์ Neutral ประกอบรูป ก็ดีมากประทับใจแต่มันไม่ใช่แค่นั้น (1)

@DeniseWCairo @malyvedec It's a brilliant story. I think I mentioned the Bata town in the UK for an article I did ages ago, sadly behind paywall. :( worksthatwork.com/6/bata

Geniální vlákno. Lidi z celého světa píší, že si mysleli, že Baťa je jejich národní značka.

So .. did anyone grow up with the only shoe store in town really being Bata shoes? I always thought they were a Kenyan company... I learnt today my Indian friends always thought it was an Indian company... turns out the company started out in what is now the Czech republic...

Works That Work worksthatwork.com の日本編集版が今出るのすごく良いなと思って買った。帯文良い「流行のコンセプトや成功事例ばかりがメディアを流通する。しかし、日常生活や社会環境がその必要から生み出した工夫や営みにこそ、デザインが向き合うべき課題がある」

@joseph_kes Other than that, a Japanese anthology of worksthatwork magazine will come out later this summer. These days we focus on language research about all living and marginalized languages and type design development at our mother company @typotheque

@joseph_kes We completed the cycle, publishing 10 issues, as intended. Those issues remain on sale on worksthatwork.com

.@WorksThatWork I have asked around and been told you have stopped publishing this incredible magazine. Can I still buy print issues? What are you up to these days?

@cjtype @tanyatypes @theoriginalecs These ‘pull quotes‘ were actually specifically written so you can still get a sense of the text without reading the full piece. They were not pulled from the main text. Same for captions — they provide a secondary reading, for readers in a hurry.

What is the point of pull quotes for articles served on a mobile phone? I’d rather not have to scroll further just to re read the sentences in a larger point size

Our exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Den Haag includes full collections of @dot_dot_dot_mag and @WorksThatWork. We instructed the guards to allow visitors to freely browse them.

I truly believe that people are social creatures and want to help others. Sometimes, they just fail to consider consequences of their actions. A thing I learned while editing @WorksThatWork magazine is that good design/action should benefit *ALL* involved parties.

Today a customer mentioned that she could get a new hardcover book online for $15. Our mission is not to shame anyone for their shopping practices, but we do feel a responsibility to educate about what it means when a new hardcover is available for $15 online.

Design in 2018 | 4. A sad loss for design in 2018 was the closure of the brilliant Dutch design journal Works That Work. It produced ten issues over fie years, all exploring "unexpected creativity” and politically charged aspects of vernacular design.
