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.

Résumé:
A sprawling compendium of Art Deco design from across Europe, Euro Deco features a broad range of exemplary graphic ephemera. Culled from Steven Heller and Louise Fili's popular International Deco series of inspirational reference books, the material in Euro Deco comes from Italy, Spain, the UK, Germany, France, and the Netherlands, primarily between WWI and WWII -- the time when the continent gave birth to modern graphic design.

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:
L'ornementation typographique a connu diverses fortunes dans l'histoire de la création graphique. Elle a été portée aux nues par des mouvements comme l'Arts & Crafts ou rejetée par d'autres comme le Bauhaus. Après avoir longtemps disparu du paysage graphique, elle effectue aujourd'hui un retour en force spectaculaire. Cet ouvrage propose de montrer comment les graphistes, illustrateurs et typographes actuels intègrent des caractères calligraphiés, illustrés, ornementés, expressifs, dans leurs projets personnels ou commerciaux. Ce panorama foisonnant est divisé en trois parties - la première consacrée aux influences des Styles et périodes du passé, la deuxième à la prédominance des motifs issus de la nature et la troisième au grand éclectisme qui règne dans ce domaine. Dans chaque partie, des modules thématiques présentent les principaux styles et motifs de ce renouveau typographique : " victorien ", " psychédélique ", " fleurs ", " liquide " ou encore " chaotique " et " puzzle ". Le point de vue passionnant des auteurs, leur sélection pointue et originale font de Nouvelle Typographie ornementale un ouvrage de référence et une superbe source d inspiration pour les amoureux de la typographie.

Résumé:
New in the "100 Ideas that Changed..." series, this book demonstrates how ideas influenced and defined graphic design, and how those ideas have manifested themselves in objects of design. The 100 entries, arranged broadly in chronological order, range from technical (overprinting, rub-on designs, split fountain); to stylistic (swashes on caps, loud typography, and white space); to objects (dust jackets, design handbooks); and methods (paper cut-outs, pixelation). Written by one of the world’s leading authorities on graphic design and lavishly illustrated, the book is both a great source of inspiration and a provocative record of some of the best examples of graphic design from the last hundred years.

Résumé:
Designers and pundits explore what it means to be a designer in a corporate-driven, over-branded, global consumer culture. The book tackles design responsibility with a scope and diversity previously unseen. Forty essays and interviews espouse viewpoints covering a wide range of social, professional, political, and cultural topics including: reality branding, game design and school violence, socially responsible advertising and exploitation, and design as a force for improving the environment. Edited by two advocates of socially responsible design, Citizen Designer responds to the tough questions being asked by today’s designers: How can a designer effect social or political change? Can design be more than a service to clients? When does a designer have to take responsibility for a client’s actions? At what point must a designer take a stand? This book encourages designers and students of design to carefully research the clients they work with; to be alert about corporate, political, and social developments; and to design socially responsible products. With essays by: Hugh Aldersey-Williams, Julie Baugnet, Leslie Becker, Roy R. Behrens, Nancy Bernard, J.D. Biersdorfer, Anne Bush, Robbie Conal, Michael Dooley, Stuart Ewen, Thomas Frank, Ken Garland, Peter Hall, Mr. Keedy, Maud Lavin, Victor Margolin, Carolyn McCarron, Katherine McCoy, David Reinfurt, Chris Riley, Chase A.
