Cyan Magenta Yellow Black - Paperback

by Kevin Fenton (Author)

Stylish, smart, and big-hearted, Cyan Magenta Yellow Black lovingly summons the Minneapolis Saint Paul of December of 1993, just before the internet changed everything. It's a place where friendships form in group therapy sessions and blossom in coffee shops-and where a handful of people contemplate kerning, color palettes, and headlines with the passion of artisans.
