I recently had the pleasure of photographing Ken Carbone and Leslie Smolan to add to my series of noted graphic designers. Their new book “Dialog": What Makes a Great Design Partnership shares the story of this legendary partnership.

Ken at work or play?
A few pages from some of the 28 exquisite journals, which Ken refers to as "Soulbooks" or "a laboratory for ideas".
Ken: "I date each page with a rubber stamp. However, I work in them only when I'm inspired. This way it's never forced and always fun."
In total, Ken's journals, compiled over about twenty years, fill roughly 6000 pages of notes and sketches.
