Words Without Words: A Visual Dictionary
ByHow to remember the meanings of "ingress" and "herpetologist"? Spend time with Veronika Heckova's illustrations.
I love, love, love words and language, especially whenever lingo-love and beautiful design meet. So I'm all over Words Without Words by Slovakian-born, Stanford-educated, Los-Angeles-based designer Veronika Heckova—a lovely visual dictionary of words with abstract, complex, or underused meanings.
The project is part Radiolab homage to words, part Johnny Carrera's visual dictionary of curiosities, and altogether wonderful.
