SEGD Fellow, Richard Poulin, is a designer, professor, author and artist. His latest project is a monograph about the life and work of designer Rudolph de Harak (1924–2002), Poulin’s one-time mentor and an unsung hero of mid-century modern design. Titled Rational Simplicity: Rudolph de Harak, Graphic Designer, the upcoming book celebrates and showcases de Harak’s many and varied projects, including his design of “record sleeves, magazine covers, exhibitions, building facades, posters, furniture, corporate identities, pictograms, and even the famous shopping bags for the Metropolitan Museum of Art.”
