Résumé:
Designers, graphic artists, architects, and urban planners are now confronted with the tasks of signage, route management, and information and orientation systems. With this book they can profit from a broad view of phenomena related to disorientation-disorientation in scientific disciplines, in our environments, and in expressive presentations. On the one hand, this should make it possible for designers to benefit from attitudes to the topic derived from experience and to move from confusion to visual reflection. On the other, it will enable scholarly disciplines to explore the formation of categories that can move things forward. This visual study is accompanied by heterogeneous brief texts. Images and texts are thus placed in a relationship of mutual reflections rather than confronted with one another in a commentary or illustration.

Résumé:
Ruedi Baur has chosen seven concepts to describe his conceptual approach: anticipate, question, inscribe, perplex, orient, differentiate, and translate. They serve as the structure of his book and the basis for seven dialogues between him and conversation partners from various disciplines. The practical implementation of these concepts is presented using projects from his Integral studio in Zurich und Paris. Previously unpublished new projects are integrated thematically into the evolution of Baur’s oeuvre. This book captures the conceptual and design constants of, and the fascination in, the work of Ruedi Baur. Five years after the success of Ruedi Baur, Intégral et associés, the author again takes stock and manifests the principles of his design work and attitude.

The material concerning symbols and signs, here presented, is complex in character. The text is not continuous. It consists of explanations of the figures with which it is linked. The symbols stand in relation with one another, creating a network which is difficult to follow in book form. As an aid to exploration of the subject matter, this chart was produced with rows of signs and captions. The mind, however, does not follow the content in linear fashion but moves criss-cross in a pattern which is different for each 'reader'.

Résumé:
The world speaks in about 7000 tongues, and countless dialects. For centuries, people have tried to overcome this tower of Babel. For instance by propagating one language or by making a new language, such as Esperanto. But the language which today is best understood world-wide does not consist of words, but of images.

The overall design process of ‘Orientation and Identity’ discusses 18 new direction graphics systems, from analysis to their everyday use. The selection concentrates on information design from all of Europe. The broad range of projects isn’t the only new aspect. The comprehensive exploration of these projects as well as the focus on the current discourse on orientation and interdisciplinary work between visual and spatial design is another innovative aspect. Each project was photographed individually and features detailed project information on the symbols, typography, etc. Interviews with designers give the reader an exciting glimpse behind the scenes.

Résumé:
L'image d'une pomme désigne le fruit mais peut aussi, dans certains cas, évoquer une alimentation saine ou symboliser la beauté, car les signes ont le pouvoir de signifier tout autre chose que ce qu'ils semblent montrer. Leur signification dépend des éléments qui servent à les mettre en forme ainsi que du contexte dans lequel ils sont perçus. Alphabet morse, panneaux de signalisation, publicités, héraldique, musique, peinture, photographie, poésie, cinéma, design et architecture, gestes et expressions du visage, symptômes, vêtements ou rituels : les signes sont d'une extraordinaire diversité et ne cessent d'enrichir le champ des significations qui nous entourent. Massivement véhiculés par l'image, ils relèvent de la sémiotique, qui est l'étude des signes. Cet ouvrage propose un accès facile à l'univers des signes à travers soixante-seize notions présentées sous forme de questions-réponses à la manière d'un jeu avec l'auteur. Le lecteur est ainsi amené à s'interroger sur la façon dont les signes sont élaborés, interprétés et compris.

Résumé:
The purpose and primary function of wayfinding and signage design is to provide spatial orientation as quickly and clearly as possible. Respective concepts and systems can be designed for individual buildings, for example coporate headquarters, museums or hospitals, for areas such as a university campus or distinct municipal district, or for entire systems like a city's public transport. In addition to communicating direction, the interplay of typography, pictograms, materials, colors and shapes in these systems also delineates a particular identity of the location. On the basis of international realizations this title shows the range of different approaches and implementation possibilities of environmental graphics.

Résumé:
At the beginning of the 20th century, an unprecedented volume of information began circulating in the mass media, calling for the development of new visualization tactics to organize it all. The abundance of news and information required new forms of representation that would allow readers to glean a quick understanding of complex circumstances at a glance; the infographic was born. "Image Factories" is dedicated to the pioneering infographics of Austrian physician and illustrator Fritz Kahn (1888–1968) and German philosopher Otto Neurath (1882–1945), who both worked with graphic designers to realize their groundbreaking information visualizations. Presenting historical material and imagery designed between 1920 and 1945 alongside contemporary infographics, with a series of essays by Helena Doudova, Stephanie Jacobs, Patrick Rössler, Bernd Stiegler, Vilém Flusser and Otto Neurath, Image Factories offers a fascinating account of the early development of the infographic.
