Pamela Golbin - Louis Vuitton Marc Jacobs (Limited Edition) - 2012

To celebrate the 15th anniversary of Marc Jacobs as creative director of Louis Vuitton, LVMH organized an exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. NR2154 was commissioned to design the branding concept for the exhibition and a related book, which was to be published by Rizzoli.

The book grew to become one of Rizzoli's best-selling hardcover books and is now in its 5th edition. A special trade edition, exclusively available in Louis Vuitton stores, sold out quickly and is now considered a collectors' item.

Inspired by the lives and work of Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Vuitton, two visionaries in fashion whose lives, a hundred years apart, exhibited similar themes, we created a story that compared and contrasted their lives. For each of them, a separate, custom-made typeface was designed, along with a third, combined style that reflects their similarities and differences. This design was extended to both the book and the exhibition.
