Design Associate Professor Karen Cheng is one of three UW professors who are this week hosting the visit of highly respected French type designer Jean François Porchez. While here, he will give two public lectures, present a type design workshop for Design Division students, visit UW classes, and make trips to selected local design firms. Additional information about all events is on a Simpson Center for the Humanities webpage; the Simpson Center provided funding for Porchez’s visit.
