Just came across a remarkable interview of Mies Hora (“Navigating Today’sSigns – An Interview with Mies Hora”)(TinyUrl here ) by Stev Heller in the AIGA blog. Mies Hora is the founder of UltimateSymbol, which publishes books and usable electronic images of signs (as well as fonts and some other goodies). In a sense, these books make him the heir to Henry Dreyfuss
and Otto Neurath.
