Summary:
This publication is a collection of “favorite” designs as selected by 80 graphic designers, typographers, teachers, scholars, writers and design impresarios. Designers have preferences, like modern over postmodern, serif over sans serif, decorative over minimal, but designers could not be engaged in design practice if they did not love design. The reasons for such a charged emotion varies from individual to individual, but there are certain commonalities regarding form, function, outcome, and more. Design triggers something in all of us that may be solely aesthetic or decidedly content-driven, but in the final analysis, we are drawn to it through the heart.

One designer who revolutionized the presentation of printed information was modernist pioneer Ladislav Sutnar (1897–1976). In 1950, Sutnar and architect K.

Summary:
Long before the internet and its vast stores of information in digital form, information in analog form needed to be organized so that it was legible and accessible. One designer who revolutionized the presentation of printed information was modernist pioneer Ladislav Sutnar (1897–1976). In 1950, Sutnar and architect K. Lonberg-Holm published Catalog Design Progress, a guide to modernizing the design of printed materials through typographic simplicity, compositional ingenuity, and navigational devices that signal the logical flow of information. This meticulously created facsimile of the original book illustrates and enacts Sutnar's ideas, making clear their continuing influence on graphic design.

Summary:
Avant l'essor des restaurants à la fin des années 1800, les menus imprimés étaient un luxe assez rare, réservé aux grandes occasions. Avec le développement des restaurants, le menu est devenu plus qu'une simple liste de plats cuisinés. La conception des menus est devenue partie intégrante des repas au restaurant, faisant de ces menus des outils de marketing, mais aussi des objets de collection recherchés. Menu Design est un recueil grand format des plus belles illustrations de cet art graphique. Avec près de mille exemples, richement colorés, ce luxueux volume offre non seulement une sélection extraordinaire parmi ces éphémères objets de papier, mais aussi une histoire de la restauration, à la fois en Amérique et ailleurs. Outre les couvertures, de nombreux intérieurs de menus sont ici présentés, invitant le lecteur à une promenade épicurienne et à découvrir plus d'un siècle de repas en ville. De nombreuses photographies de restaurants complètent cette anthologie, qui passionnera tous ceux qui aiment sortir dîner, et qui s'intéressent à l'histoire graphique comme gastronomique de cette tradition.

Summary:
Les 100 plus grands typographes contemporains nous invitent à explorer leurs carnets de croquis ! Cet ouvrage reproduit des extraits de leurs carnets de travail. Les carnets de croquis sont délibérément informels. Ils sont conçus pour que leurs auteurs se perfectionnent, expérimentent ou s’amusent, tout simplement. Dans la plupart des carnets présentés ici, la typographie joue le premier rôle, comme les notations de panneaux anciens de Leigh Wells. Mais les auteurs ont aussi inclus des illustrations, tels les caractères anthropomorphes de Tom Schamp. Parfois, les carnets de croquis donnent un aperçu des étapes d’un projet, montrent comment une idée évolue. D’autres fois, ce sont des méandres dessinés de manière aléatoire, comme les mélanges de dessins et de constructions de Pedro Inoue.

Slab serif

Summary:
The slab serif typeface—in their classic form, wood types made for large-scale posters, ads, and newspapers—may not be as all-purpose as the gothic or sans serif, but it is equal, if not more powerful, in graphic appeal. Since being introduced in the nineteenth century, slabs have become ubiquitous and are today as popular as ever. Slabs come from a genre of Egyptian(...)

Summary:
The slab serif typeface—in their classic form, wood types made for large-scale posters, ads, and newspapers—may not be as all-purpose as the gothic or sans serif, but it is equal, if not more powerful, in graphic appeal. Since being introduced in the nineteenth century, slabs have become ubiquitous and are today as popular as ever. Slabs come from a genre of Egyptian typefaces (some of the leading slabs are called Cairo and Sphinx) brought back to France by Napoleon and marketed in specimen sheets and books as representing a glorious heritage brought to the present. Following the cult typography volumes Scripts, Shadow Type, and Stencil Type, this new volume comprises an artfully curated selection of hundreds of international and classic examples.

Summary:
In The Moderns, we meet the men and women who invented and shaped Midcentury Modern graphic design in America. The book is made up of generously illustrated profiles, many based on interviews, of more than 60 designers whose magazine, book, and record covers; advertisements and package designs; posters; and other projects created the visual aesthetics of postwar modernity. Some were émigrés from Europe; others were homegrown—all were intoxicated by elemental typography, primary colors, photography, and geometric or biomorphic forms. Some are well-known, others are honored in this volume for the first time, and together they comprised a movement that changed our design world.

This provocative survey reveals how four of the most destructive dictatorships of the 20th century - Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Soviet Russia and Communist China - used graphic design to sell their messages. Explores each regime's distinctive strategies for seducing public opinion and infiltrating people's lives, in media ranging from logos, flags, typefaces and posters to children's books and figurines Remarkable archival photographs set the disturbingly powerful graphic devices in historical context. The perceptive text analyses how these four regimes established the most effective modes of visual propaganda, which were later adopted and adapted by many other dictatorships.
