Résumé:
Typography is the single most important design element, and, therefore, the most consequential course that an undergraduate student can take. Then why do so many student portfolios reflect poor typographic skill? In a singular effort to raise the bar on type education, designer and teacher Steven Heller reached out to type-devoted educators across the United States. Drawing from hundreds of hours of collective teaching experience, they distilled proposals and working concepts that make for challenging courses without inflating the students’ schedules. In "The Education of a Typographer", editor Heller presents forty-one approaches to laying the foundation for typographic fluency.

Résumé:
Stretching the boundaries of typographic expression, Type Tells Tales is a sensational showcase of type that is integral to the message it conveys, with the capacity to emote, engage, and guide the reader from one thought to the next. Navigating the far reaches of graphic design, Steven Heller and Gail Anderson reveal how type can render a particular voice or multiple conversations, how letters in various shapes and sizes can guide the eye through dense information, and how type can become both content and illustration, as letters take the form of people, animals, cars, or planes. The book’s 332 illustrations – including 290 in color – feature historical examples by F. T. Marinetti, Bruno Munari, and Francis Picabia, among others, as well as by contemporary designers such as Richard Eckersley, John Hendrix, Maira Kalman, and Corita Kent.

Résumé:
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.

Résumé:
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(...)

Résumé:
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.

Résumé:
Astonishingly, Stephan Sagmeister has only learned twenty things in his life so far. But he did manage to publish these personal maxims all over the world, in spaces normally occupied by advertisements and promotions: as billboards, projections, light boxes, magazine spreads, annual report covers, fashion brochures, and recently, as giant inflatable monkeys. In this design book for non-designers Sagmeister throws his diary, a lot of design, and a little art together with a pinch of psychology and a dash of happiness into a blender and pushes the button. It tastes surprisingly yummy.

Résumé:
After completing an apprenticeship in lithography, Armin Hofmann (born 1920) began teaching his own typographic principles at the Basel School of Design in 1947. He and his collegues who contributed to the development of Swiss international Style, advocated a belief in absolute and universal graphic expres-sion. Hofmann has also taught at Yale and the Philadelphia Museum School of the Arts. In 1965 he wrote the «Graphic Design Manual», which is regarded as a fundamental work in the field of modern graphic design and art. "Poster Collection 07" gathers the most important posters of Armin Hofmann, and shows them – corresponding to his fundamental importance as a graphic design teacher – in a context with works from his most famous students, who continued his methods, as there are Nelly Rudin, Karl Gerstner, Pierre Mendell, Klaus Oberer, Gérard Ifert and others.
