hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

First Edition. The fascination of type for typographers and graphic designers alike has always been theinterplay between the form--the style and shape of the letterform itself--and the content--the message that the type carries as it appears on the page. Typo-Graphics comes at a time when graphic designers are expanding their understanding of typography and taking a measure of control themselves. It explores the work of 24 typographers, art directors and designers from all over the world who are bringing new graphic and artistic understanding to type design. Radical, provocative, experimental or highly practical, the practitioners featured in the book all share one common idea--that with new tools and new technologies, type can be made to work even harder and on more levels than ever before. Displaying an amazing array of fabulously imaginative and beautifully crafted work. Typo-Graphics demonstrates how cultural and commercial context influences type design, how type makes pictures as well as words, and how a new, closer, relationship between the practice of graphic design and typography is essential for the profession's progress. The book will give all designers a uniquely inspirational and practical understanding of how to take their work forward in a world where clients demand multi-skilled creativity, and the pressures of time, cost and technology make that not just possible--but essential; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 191 pages; Physical desc. : 191 p. : ill. (some col. ) ; 31 cm. Subject: Graphic design (Typography) 2 Kg. Seller Inventory # 156135
