Résumé:
Dans les villes, sur les routes, au supermarché : les panneaux indicateurs sont partout. Si leur présence semble évidente, leur forme, leur contenu, leur emplacement ne vont pourtant pas de soi. Ils sont le résultat d'un travail complexe qui produit des espaces hybrides, où signes et architectures sont entrelacés. Ce livre explore les coulisses d'une signalétique aujourd'hui mondialement reconnue: celle du métro parisien. De l'organisation des services, jusqu'à l'activité des ouvriers qui installent et réparent les panneaux, en passant par les discours des concepteurs, il évoque les multiples facettes d'un dispositif ambitieux qui vise à transformer aussi bien les espaces du métro que le comportement de ses usagers. Complétant leur enquête d'un détour par le métro new-yorkais, les auteurs montrent que la signalétique parisienne instaure une véritable politique de l'attention où chacun peut s'attacher à la multitude des objets graphiques qui sont mis à sa disposition.

Loin des habituels clichés sur la Ville Lumière, les trois photographes de ce livre proposent un voyage en images sur ce qui fait l'identité visuelle d'une ville, son quotidien à portée d'œil. Le typique se déplace: pas de monuments, de vues imprenables, de perspectives bluffantes mais des devantures, des enseignes commerciales, des plaques de rue, d'égouts, des panneaux de signalisation en tous genres, des collections de murs peints ou de camions taggués... Page après page se découvre ici un alphabet particulier pour déchiffrer une ville, sa spécificité. Des signes multiples qui, l'air de rien, s'inscrivent dans la mémoire du passant ou dans celle du voyageur y dessinant une silhouette urbaine bien particulière.

Résumé:
Les six essais qui composent cet ouvrage portent sur des sujets apparemment très différents : des logos, un "total look", un concept de magasin et un couteau. Si ces objets sont ici soumis à une analyse sémiotique, c'est qu'ils illustrent, au-delà de leur commune appartenance à la culture matérielle contemporaine, un même mode de production du sens.

Résumé:
Repurposing the sad, comical and seemingly trivial minutiae of everyday life into pie charts, flow charts and other forms of visual data sorting, New York-based artist Andrew Kuo transforms the idlest of days into a witty analysis in color and pattern. The charm of these works lies not only in their balance of what might be called "cool content in geek form," but also in the criteria and gradations they measure. Kuo's obsessive charts, which resemble Op art, Concrete art or the abstractions of Josef Albers have reached a wide audience through his music reviews for The New York Times, as well as through numerous solo shows over the past ten years. What Me Worry adopts Mad magazine's slogan to gently poke fun at the artist's compulsive record-keeping, and compiles a range of charts, some of which are also made into colorful sculptures, alongside figurative paintings, diary musings and a series of recipes.

The iF communication design award has long been regarded as a barometer of current trends in communication design - this year, it will be conferred for the seventh time. There is virtually no other industry as dynamic as that of communication design.

Only especially good communication media are capable of fulfilling these expectations and offering assistance. With the help of its jury of international experts, the iF communication design award 2010 once again honors commercials, publications, campaigns, corporate reports, websites, and other communication media which are especially outstanding in their designs. The iF communication design award yearbook 2010 offers an appraisal and appreciation of the winners of the iF communication design award 2010 as well as exciting insights into the world of communication design.
