    Graphic designer Michael Bierut, who created Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign logo, discusses the heated reaction to his design and why logos get people so worked up. The Academy Awards are this Sunday, and FIDM curator and fashion historian Kevin Jones looks at the nominees for best costume design. Sandy Powell has been nominated for two films, and shares the ideas behind her costumes for Carol and Cinderella, tracing her influences to Lindsay Kemp and David Bowie. And Avishay Artsy tours LACMA's latest acquisition, the Sheats-Goldstein Residence designed by John Lautner, with James Goldstein, Michael Govan and others.
