Summary:
The first ever English translation of Bruno Munari's ''Design and Visual Communication'' (1968) fills a gap in Munari's output for the English-speaking world and provides a highly relevant guide to bridging architecture and design education and everyday life. Published in 1968 after Munari was invited to the Carpenter Center at Harvard to teach, the book transforms over 50 lessons, class materials and letters addressed to the city of Milan, into a book on the future of art, architecture and design. Conceived as a living volume, the book is written to inspire current and future designers to push beyond past events, however recent, and develop new tools to see and understand tomorrow's world.

Bruno Munari a mené dès 1963 des expériences avec la machine Xerox 914, expériences que se poursuivront tout au long de sa carrière. En 1970, pour sa participation à la Biennale de Venise, il met à disposition une machine Xerox pour un laboratoire expérimental. C'est à cette occasion qu'est publié Xerografia : Documentazione sull'uso creativo delle macchine Rank Xerox (Xérographie : documentation sur l'utilisation créative des machines Rank Xerox) qui fournit des instructions afin de détourner la fonction de la machine commerciale afin de créer des images et des œuvres d'art originales. Allant de l'abstrait au figuratif, les œuvres de Munari réalisées sur la Xerox déforment le sujet original, en déplaçant les images sur la surface de la machine pendant le processus de numérisation.

In the oldest writings and in the rock insrciptions of early man, it signifies the idea of enclosure, of home, of settlement. Enigmatic in its simplicity, in the monotonous repetition of four equal sides and four equal angles, it creates a series of interesting figures...

In 1949, Munari designed a series of “libri illeggibili” (illegible books), which abandon textual communication in favour of aesthetic function. Paper is no longer the support for the text; it also communicates a message through the format, the colour, the cuts and their successions.

Paper is no longer the support for the text; it also communicates a message through the format, the colour, the cuts and their successions. The elements that usually set up a book (like the colophon and the title-page) are omitted, and the reading plays like a melody, with different tones through the sequence of the pages.
