    Narrative Design: A Fifty Year Perspective

    (2023)

    • Kit Hinrichs

    Graphis Inc.

    “Narrative Design: A Fifty Year Perspective” is a collection of work from the obsessive graphic designer Kit Hinrichs. To the legendary AIGA medalist, author, teacher, and collector, design is the business of telling a story. It's not just about communicating a product or a corporate ethos — it's about contributing to the collective culture of storytelling.
