idp: i like the style at sagmeister.com though, but in general i think he is quite self-indulgent.
He has got a good take on 'design for a good cause' though in this article http://www.typotheque.com/articl…

can I get a free signed copy?
I'm sure it has something to do with the horny canary your family kept when you were a small child. And even though now you know that it was a simple, small and harmless bird its powerful symbolism remains what it was when you were that lost little boy who was simply tired of the bird pecking at your fingers as you filled its water.
Am I close?
I knew it...Peanut butter jelly time!

idp: yeah, i said something about it in dfd's 'my rant' thread...
What i mean is that i don't like the 'made you look' that isn't just the title of his book but also a bit of his attitude. And also when he speaks i find him a bit arrogant. I like a lot of his work so don't get me wrong but to me he comes across as false sometimes.

Cheers BonSeff! Good stuff...

hmm weird...I've only seen him speak on the Hillman Curtis video thingy, and I didn't get that attitude from his book. Maybe if I read it again with that in mind I'll get the same thing from it.
I figured you might be more familiar with his self-promotional stuff which I think for the most part he uses himself as the model...but I just think that it works for his studio if he plays it like he's kind of a front man for a band.
I really liked his book a lot, but I always got the feeling he was a pretty humble guy...I guess I'll have to try and hear him speak sometime. I hate arrogance in designers, I used to really like Joshua Davis until I saw a video of him speaking...seemed very fake like you say. But for some reason I took Sagmeisters humor as more playfulness than arrogance.

I might as well be wrong haven't even read the whole book. I often jump to conclusions and prejudice so don't take me to serious :-)
The Hillman Curtis vid. is very inspiring anyhow...

Oi Fate, a lot of webdesigners forget that the work needs to speak on a portfolio site and not the site himselfs. And black and white fits perfect for this description.
