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 Previously unpublished new projects are integrated thematically into the evolution of Baur’s oeuvre.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.

Résumé:
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.

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:
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.
