Princeton Architectural Press recently release Graphic Design Rules, a book I wrote with Peter Dawson, John Foster, and Tony Seddon. To launch the release, the good people at Princeton Architectural Press asked me to take over their Instagram feed for a day. I imagine they determined that I was safe to do this as I rarely post nude selfies. I chose some of my favorite rules (and there are so many because I am quite uptight) and created some posts. Voila, the recap.
