Three Questions for Mark Boulton
Posted 3 years ago, mid-June.
As a part of my ongoing Three Questions series, I’ve managed to score an interview with Mark Boulton. Mark is an expert on web typography and grid based layouts, he co-authored Web Standards Creativity, and he recently started his eponymous design studio—Mark Boulton Design Ltd.
This year at South by Southwest, Mark gave a fantastic presentation with Khoi Vinh entitled Grids are Good—by far the best talk given this year, squeezed down to twenty-two minutes to boot.
Also highly recommended—Mark’s fantastic Five Simple Steps series of posts, spanning typography to color theory, with a book soon to come.
Read on for Mark’s thoughts on justifying design, the value of graphic design education, and client work versus in-house work.
