Intricate beauty by design – Marian Bantjes In this charming talk, the man behind typefaces such as Verdana, Georgia and Bell Centennial (designed just for phone books - remember them?), takes us on a spin through a career focused on the very last pixel of each letter of a font.

The ability to analyze take the best from the past usually broadens the creative horizons and becomes a solid foundation for innovative thinking. Most of them are already classic, sometimes even could be called legendary, and that makes them even more precious as they have been successfully checked with the time and practice. This time they are focused on the issues of graphic design. Here is the collection of 10 TED-talks all with the descriptions given on the TED website or YouTube presentations. Today we’re going to recommend you a new set of professional and informative TED and TEDx-talks that we find interesting, useful and helpful. Perhaps you remember the collections we have already suggested watching: 20 TED talks for designers about diverse design issues and 10 TED-talks for creatives from different spheres. One of the ways to inspiration we find productive and highly professional here in Tubik Studio is TED videos. Today it is enhanced and strengthened by broad opportunities of modern technologies, but new generations of the best designers keep following the roots and getting inspired by the experts. It covers multiple purposes and serves a great deal of diverse spheres of human life and activity. It’s not a secret how diverse and influential is graphic design nowadays.
