The New Yorker: Typographic Website-Marie Lessard

I was looking up Typography websites, when I happened to stumble across this site. The "New Yorker" is a very popular magazine that has a lot of interesting typefaces that it uses. It doesn't really tell who designed the website, but I can tell that it took a lot of time and effort to accomplish. I took a screen shot of the website, and the image above is one of their artistic designs. There were a lot of "New Yorker Magazine pictures in the, "print" magazine, this included. So seeing the design in the magazine is what inspired me to put this on my blog. To view the "New Yorker" website the address is down below...

Inspired by Illustrator: Marie Lessard

Marie Lessard is an Illustrator that is a "Quebec City-based" she studied graphic design, illustration, and print-making at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Her work has also been published in The New York Times, Communication Arts Magazine, American Illustration, The Society of Illustrators’Annual, Applied Arts Magazine, Canadian Business, among others. I like her work because it is inspiring, and I like that she is a very popular Illustrator. Her work is similar to the "New Yorker Magazine" because her work is shown in those magazines, and she has done a lot of "print-work" for these magazines.
