gastrotypographicalassemblage
I first saw a photo of mid-century designer Lou Dorfman's "gastrotypographicalassemblage" wall in an issue of I.D. magazine last year and was absolutely blown away. The creative vision of the legendary CBS art director and designer is the largest, modern typographic artifact in existence and has been in storage since it was taken down in the '90's.

Wow.... this is incredible.

It's like the Great Wall. I so want to get my picture taken in front of that baby! Right by the "Eat, Drink and Be Merry".
