Jan Tschichold



I wasn't really too sure who this guy was to begin with and yes i know i should be ashamed. basically one of the legends of typography.funny looking chap that got into all sorts of trouble with the gestapo during the second world war over communist posters he had.he created the book Die neue Typographie which is basically an extremist modern design manifesto laying out proper structure to book design, typefaces etc.
