The catalog explores notions of parataxis—the pairing of disparate imagery or sentences—to create new meaning. The perfect-bound book features a one-color cover and black and white interior pages and utilizes custom typefaces from Underware.

Part political, part poetic, and part semiotic, Writing Writing explores the work of five designers who write as well as make visual form.
