Paul Elliman is a British graphic designer. Official bios always seem to make a point of saying that he is "self-trained," as if it's somehow shocking that he does such great design without a couple of letters after his name. I suppose it is unusual, but Elliman is an unusual person himself.
He was my undergrad final project advisor. I would have jumped through flaming hoops to win his approval, but unfortunately the art department was short on circus equipment that semester.
Here he is talking with Michael Rock, another fantastic designer, about the cultural meanings of screens.
