A collection of 10 Design Briefs and catalogs from the Katherine Small Gallery in Sommerville, Massachusetts; where they have exhibits and shows on graphic design, typography, and printed ephemera. Design Briefs are little booklets described by the gallery's staff as short, easily-digestible, sing-topic issues about a designer you've never heard of, an unknown body of work from a designer you might know of, or some collection of oddball things you've never thought of.
