Irma Boom Lecture

• Irma Boom, book designer / rockstar

Just a week after the Swiss Style Forever? panel discussion, IB gave a lecture at the Museum of Design Zürich on the 13th of May.

It was an insightful presentation of her work and the stories behind the making of her books. Sometimes even stories about single pages.

IB uses a camera and a projector to display the pages she flips through while she talks about them. I can’t think of a better or more intimate way to show book projects to a large audience. Currently, she is working on her own monograph. She might find a great way to show books in books, as well.
