Introduction by Russell Maret. Interview by Monique Comacchio and Camden Richards. 'Against Design' focuses on the typographic design and letterpress printing that has issued from the Koch studios for more than four decades. "How can I begin a reflection on design with the title 'Against Design' when, due to the very nature of the project, I cannot maintain consistency? After all, every conscious act of making involves design. Every object in our field of vision is subject to interpretation, and every act of interpretation is constructed by design. Design penetrates everything we understand." Peter Koch
