Week in Review: 09.29.12


This week on Design Observer:

Rick Poynor showed us images of graphic design inspired by a desperate need of change.

Jessica Helfand continued the saga of Ezra Winter with chapter nine.

Alexandra Lange invited us to Talk about Women in Architecture.

Jeffrey Hou focused our attention not just on ensuring the right to public assembly, but also on "the making and mobilization of the public as an actively engaged citizenry."

Mark Robbins questioned culture, space, decor and the body in Rwanda.

John Thackara mused about ecological solutions for a mega-company.

Rob Walker wondered whether a Tumblr account is a valid critique of Apple's new iPhone maps.

Mark Lamster prodded us to go see Joy: Illustrated.

Accidental Mysteries followed some sequences.

OBlog posted results of the AIGA 2012 Survey of Design Salaries, invited you to see Accidental Mysteries in person, and showed you a video interpretation of Paris vs. New York.
