And now for something completely different

CoverBritishcroppedThe European edition of GLIMMER, published by Random House UK, comes out this month. The guts of the book are the same, but I thought you’d be interested to see how differently they packaged the outside of the book….

No dust jacket, for instance. The book’s explanatory blurb is printed right on the back cover board. I like how they hightlighted certain intriguing design anecdotes in gold bubbles (all that mustard color is gold foil), and pulled out one of my favorite quotes from GLIMMER: "Progress happens by design."

I’m excited to have the Europeans join in the Glimmer conversation that’s already taking place here among the North Americans. Welcome!
