Summary:
As Art Director for Muji since 2002, Japanese graphic designer Kenya Hara (born 1958) and his aesthetic of pared-back, beautifully functional objects has taken the world by (quiet) storm. With “Kenya Hara: Designing Japan”, the designer presents his vision of how his industry can contribute to the future of his country: a future founded on Hara’s unique philosophy of beauty as well as crowd-sourced wisdom from around the world. The book spans history, from the beginnings of professional Japanese design in the 16th century to the impact of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. But Hara's real focus is on the future. A master collaborator, meticulous organizer and globally conscious innovator, Hara draws on more than three decades of work in design and exhibition curating, as well his professional interactions with creators from many fields. “Designing Japan” offers a foundation course on the essence of Japanese aesthetics, while maintaining a practical approach to Japan’s circumstances and future possibilities. Hara reveals the methods by which designers in Japan work with government and industry, and considers how design can propose solutions for this island nation as its population ages, other nations take over manufacturing and technology develops. Illustrations and examples recognize successful problem-solving through design, proving that design is a living, changing industry that remains relevant not in spite of, but as a partner to, advancing technology.

His adherence to a strict design form in his work for corporate clients was balanced by a playful side, captured in this spirited collection of literal (and figural) back-of-the-envelope sketches, doodles, notes, and imaginative sparks that later found their full form in his children's books, logos, and personal work.

Son travail est présenté par un dispositif original et inédit grâce à une série de photographies de Morgane Le Gall mettant en scène 48 affiches et de nombreux objets (livres, affiches, identités visuelles, etc.). Pour appréhender son œuvre et sa démarche, treize textes ont été commandés à des personnalités du monde culturel ayant collaboré ou accompagné Teschner au cours de sa carrière. Un échantillon d’affiche imprimé en sérigraphie à l’échelle 1 sur du papier affiche au dos bleu est inséré en fin de cahier, rendant chaque exemplaire du livre unique. // This monograph is dedicated to the French graphic designer Frédéric Teschner. Whether dealing with the visual arts, music, or theatre, Teschner’s approach has relied on graphic communication as a vehicle for the values of public service. He always strives to create a visual context for a dialogue between ordinary people and public cultural activities, and essentially sees the role of the graphic designer as interlocuter between design and its audience. A number of contributors offer detailed insight into various aspects of Teschner’s oeuvre in this comprehensive overview and tribute, which also includes a large portfolio of his work and a detailed chronological biography.

Summary:
Widely admired for his powerful but whimsical imagery, Lance Wyman is a leading figure of contemporary graphic design. Throughout a career that spans over 50 years, Wyman has made his name by designing for museums, zoos, metro stations and the 2008 Barack Obama presidential campaign. But it was when he won a competition at age 29 to design the Mexico Olympic graphics for the 1968 games that Wyman launched his career; his work is now a cornerstone for understanding the visual culture of present-day Mexico. In lieu of the extravagance typical of Olympic designs, Wyman offered something refreshing, spacious and above all modern as he unwittingly entered a tumultuous and revolutionary moment in Mexican history. His bold image of a modern Mexico would last beyond the nation's moment in the international spotlight; Wyman stayed for another four years, designing graphic systems for the Mexico City Metro, Central de Abasto and Camino Real Hotel. This bilingual English-Spanish monograph is the very first retrospective publication on the designer's work. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at MUAC in Mexico City, the book celebrates the influence of Wyman's system of visual icons—work so iconic that we find its traces in the emojis available on iPhones today.

Imprégnées de la culture des avant-gardes artistiques des années 1920, leurs réalisations se caractérisent par une approche dynamique des relations texte-image et une attention particulière portés à la clarté des informations et à la structure même de l'objet. Impliqué par ailleurs dans une réflexion sur le design, deValence est à l'origine de plusieurs supports de recherche dont la revue Back cover, la maison d'édition B42 et l'association F7. A book from deValence présente une sélection de travaux conçus par le studio depuis 2001 (identités visuelles, affiches, livres, cartons d'invitations...) retraçant près de quinze ans de collaborations. Elle est accompagnée d'un essai de Victor Guénan et d'un entretien avec l'artiste Raphaël Zarka. La préface est signée Robin Kinross.
