Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. How can typesetting or a grid have such a strong and long-time impact on a global community and emotionalize it to such a degree? Which stories are hiding behind the success and failure of a design manifesto? How can cultural exchange bring new value to the field of graphic design? At the end of the day, is the contemporary scene still truly innovative or simply basking in past glories?The concept of this one-week long artistic research project which raised these and many other related questions, was to hold conversations to discuss discuss anecdotes, stories, scandals and jealousies with typographers, graphic designers, artists, curators, and writers in a project space. Each guest was also asked to bring a design artefact that represents the diverse interactions of Swiss typography with the international design scene, all of which are presented in this volume. This builds a bridge between the typographic traditions and practices of the two countries, celebrating dialog and collaboration without ignoring divergence and conflicts. Investigating how and questioning why Swiss design principles of the 1950s and 60s could be so influential across decades, especially in the English-speaking world.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The creation of a logotype as one of the most important elements of corporate design is a challenging task for commu- nication designers. The concept that a good logotype is by definition a persua- sive logotype creates a direct link to the genre of rhetoric, which, according to Aristotle, has the power of observing the means of persuasion on almost any subject. It follows that rhetoric con- cepts and methods are ideally suited for understanding the effectiveness of logotypes to expand the horizon of applied design work. In this publication the author illustrates how designers can utilize the tools of rhetoric, a sci- ence that dates back more than 2,500 years. Stylistic devices play a central role in this as logotypes are analyzed and classified to determine which communicative strategies and intended effects they fulfill. The theoretical in- sights gained from this provide design- ers with a wealth of knowledge that facilitates analysis, idea generation, and argumentation along with a deeper understanding of the design process. The creation of a logotype as one of the most important elements of corporate design is a challenging task for communication designers. In this publication, the author illustrates how designers can utilize the tools of rhetoric, a science that dates back more than 2,500 years.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The use of italic letters as means of accentuation has become common practice in the digital age. They convey movement and dynamics, address the emotional experience of reading and remind of handwriting. However, this lively characteristic, which once re-sulted from the movement of the hand, is noticeably lost when words are simply tilted by a mouse click.To impart knowledge about this typo-graphic feature and to find a general definition as writing style, the author has compiled style patterns to examine the tangible forms, characteristics and functions of "italic nature". Furthermore, he deals intensively with the historical development of italics from handwriting to digital typesetting. This monograph is the first detailed treatise on this topic, and is aimed at all those who deal with letters professionally or privately A study on the laws and principles of italic accentuating letters, words and sentences aimed particularly at all those who deal with letters professionally or privately.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Insightful texts of 2.200 characters on book design, exploring the visual, tactile, and cultural aspects of books through the perspective of a graphic designer.Fifty readings on book design, authored by Siri Lee Lindskrog and Amanda-Li Kollberg of Formal Settings, unfold across the pages of this volume. Drawn from a curated selection of titles in the private collection of Hopscotch Reading Room - a conceptual bookshop and event space in Berlin - each text focuses on a single book, examining its visual and tactile qualities, from materials and layout to binding and typography. "Our aim is to understand the role and potential of books through a design lens, mapping what they communicate through their physical form." The authors guide readers through the intricacies of book design, showing how form can become message - how a book can serve as a vessel, a statement, and an object of beauty in its own right. They explore and examine each book as a design object, situating it within the cultural movements, political climates, and economic conditions in which it was produced. This publication reveals how book design can foster shared languages and cultures, create space for the exchange and exploration of ideas, and underscore the social and cultural dimensions of design itself. With an afterword by designer, author, and educator Prem Krishnamurthy, providing further framing and insight into the project.

The ideas and perspectives in Patrik's book are here to stay. As a long time creative coding educator, I can't recommend it enough." - Prof. Stig Moller Hansen, Professor, PhD at the Danish School of Media and Journalism, Copenhagen and expert on Computational Graphic Design and Creative Coding True creativity today means making authentic connections and shaping meaningful, dynamic narratives: with practical insights and clear principles, this book offers a fresh perspective on designing for a future that is constantly changing.Artificial intelligence, automation and ever new data-driven tools are reshaping the creative world, and the role of design and communication is evolving rapidly. The true innovation in this context is to create authenticity that endures beyond fleeting technological shifts. The Generative Mind invites us to rise above short-lived trends and see design as something alive and constantly evolving - in a world that refuses to stand still.The author combines systems thinking, generative design and a human-centered perspective to open up a new perspective on working with technology to ideate, design and tell stories. In eight clear principles, he shows how design can be understood as a process that questions boundaries in order to go beyond the visible and shape what is felt: a book for all those who understand creativity as a journey and not just a destination and want to actively shape the future of design.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. There is a long tradition of comparing cities with organisms as they have simi - larities in their anatomy. But since cities are brought into life by the presence of people, they are less living beings than urban beings with their own identity. This is based on the behaviors, needs and requirements of the residents. In other words, the anatomy of the city informs its identity - certain city structures, wherever they are, are in - fluenced in similar ways by the people who interact with them. This volume shows and makes un - derstandable these influences on the living environments of the inhabitants. Through detailed charts and elaborate maps generated from satelite images various city structures are compared across five different dimensions and their influence on the city's identity through the lived experience of the inhabitants is discussed. These range from local urban cells, explorable by foot, and urban centers to macro- regions, agglomerations of many hundreds of cities that stretch across thousands of kilometers. There is a long tradition of comparing cities with organisms as they have similarities in their anatomy. In this book, through charts and maps generated from satelite images various city structures are compared across five different dimensions and their influence on the city's identity through the lived experience of the inhabitants is discussed.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This monograph shows how the oloid, a timelessly beautiful geometric body, serves today more than ever as a source of inspiration and functional component in the visual arts and design, in technology and research, in architecture, philosophy, and music.In 1929, the sculptor, inventor and researcher Paul Schatz (1898-1971) discovered the geometric form of the oloid. Schatz' lifework was characterized by this fundamentally new body, which emerged from movement, for which he sought and found new and pioneering applications for a number of decades. This monograph, rich in images and generally understandable, shows how today, more than ever, the timelessly beautiful oloid serves as a source of inspiration and a functional element.This is true for the fine arts and design, in technology and research, in architecture, philosophy or music. Close aesthetic references to the contemporaneous sculptures of Naum Gabo, Constantin Brancusi, or Henry Moore are just as surprising as current homages to Paul Schatz by artists such as Olafur Eliasson. As simple as it is complex, at the same time elegant and powerful, the oloid proves to be a universal body that has not yet revealed all its secrets and potential.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. In visual communication, contents are arranged, organized, and presented.

When, from the 19th century onwards, sewer systems were installed in the cities that had grown rapidly in the course of industrialization, the cast-iron manhole cover - also known as gully cover - was born as an access opening into the urban underworld as we know it today.This volume provides an insight into the fascinating graphic design language of these objects from all over the world. They offer an infinite variety of design, sometimes sober and standardized, sometimes playful or illustrative, and often reflecting the spirit of the country from which they originate and/or revealing interesting aspects of the respective location. The selected manhole covers are uniformly graphically stylized in black and white to maximize contrast and impact and to allow a focus on the essential.
