"I learned that good taste did not always equate to a good design. As an educator, I find myself reaching out especially to those students who tend to struggle as I did," Canham explains.

"They often have a good feel for design, but continue to fall short on execution. This coffee table book started as a side project with a running side joke, but as I dig deeper I hope that it reaches some of the students who are looking for an easier way to explore type."
