Kipp Madison - Landesberg Design

Kipp’s work for clients such as The Heinz Endowments and Green Building Alliance has earned national attention in Graphis, Communication Arts, and Print magazines (his exhibit panels in Pittsburgh’s new convention center were featured in Communication Arts’ “Green Design” issue). Kipp joined Landesberg in 2001. He has a flair for playful and inventive design solutions involving image, language, and typographic interplay.

Early fascination with design?

As a kid/teen, I loved to build models (planes, mostly), and was always amazed that somebody had drawn how the model went together. And the model was always so stunningly photographed on the outside packaging. I just wanted my completed P40 Warhawk to look that stellar!

My collections

Back in the day: PEZ dispensers. There is something engaging about candy that is pressed, straight-edged, curved-cornered and dispensed by a plastic contraption. One can visit the PEZ Visitor Center in Orange, CT.
