Design for the Real World
Interstate Signs
On America’s first highways, road signs were hand-painted on wood. When interstates became standardized, so did the typeface. But in all sorts of conditions it still looks fuzzy. Designer Don Meeker helped bring signage back into focus. Produced by Derek John. "Design for the Real World" is an inside look at the hidden genius of everyday things – from lipstick to sheetrock, tea bags to ballparks. A regular feature of Studio 360 with Kurt Andersen, public radio's weekly show about what's happening in the culture. Produced by Public Radio International and WNYC.
