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.

My “tombstone” typeface:

I don’t know if it best represents me, but I would have Dante on my tombstone. Dante is a sturdy and classical font–in its metal type form, it was designed to be impressed into paper (vs. ink printed on top of the paper) so it would certainly look profound etched into marble or granite. But when it comes to my tombstone, I really won’t care at the time.

My hidden talent

I can ride a unicycle. (although it’s been a while.)
