About Ellen Lupton
Ellen Lupton used to think typography was technical and intimidating — but not anymore. Ellen’s online persona, Type Mom (@EllenLupton), delivers mini design tutorials littered with rainbow sprinkles. In this talk, she will share her favorite typographic metaphors, from nuggets and noodles to ice cream sundaes, and offer fresh perspectives on kerning, hierarchy, and alignment. Inspired by pet peeves and recurring conundrums, Lupton’s lessons will help you love type again. Her bestselling book, “Thinking with Type” is a comprehensive guide for graphic designers.
