Concrete Curve 13, 1993
around you that you lose your voice. How did you discover the University? WH: I landed a job in Minneapolis with a snowboard and skateboard company. It was amazing to be rocketed forward in 1995 from a zine to building a website, catalogues and retail materials, but I realized I really wanted an education. I landed a job in Sausalito as an art director of a newspaper,
and then came to the University. ES: Do you have any favorite fonts, methods, or artists? WH: The first movement that really grabbed me was the Constructivists. Their sensibility resonated with me, and still does. For favorite fonts, its more like, what’s the font being used for? I’ve long been a fan of Akzidenz Grotesk, Bell
Gothic, and Avenir. ES: What role does fashion currently play in your life? WH: Probably none (laughs). I used to buy W when it was a big, foldout newsprint publication but again, I wasn’t looking at the fashion as much as I was looking at the design. Everything I’m wearing came from Old Navy. What can I say?
