In 1989 Abbott Miller founded the multidisciplinary
studio Design/Writing/Research where, in collaboration
with Ellen Lupton, he pioneered the concept of “designer
as author” undertaking projects in which content
and form are developed in a symbiotic relationship.
He joined Pentagram’s
New York office as a partner in 1999. At Pentagram
he leads a team designing books, magazines, identities,
exhibitions and creating editorial projects. Abbott—together
with Ellen Lupton—was awarded the first Chrysler
Award for Innovation in Design. He is a contributing
editor of Eye magazine and co-author of four books
and soon to be published Open
Book, a study of his collaborations with
such artists as Yoko Ono, Twyla Tharp and Philip
Glass and clients such as Harley-Davidson and Steuben.
