Synopsis
This Gun Is for Hire is a guidebook that provides insight into the ongoing challenge of translating personal design approaches into viable – and paid – commercial projects.
The book illustrates how designers and clients can work together to develop projects that are both commercially successful and push creative limits. Not only is This Gun Is for Hire full of examples of recent corporate, graphic and product design projects that truly inspired their creators, their clients and their clients’ customers, but it also presents them in such a way that others can learn from them.
The diverse projects from international designers such as Eikes Grafischer Hort, Fons Hickmann, Attik, Chocolate Skateboard and Hansen Ho are depicted with impressive visuals and are accompanied by text explaining the original briefing and the circumstances leading up to either their implementation or a lost pitch. The book is rounded out by a series of interviews with and essays by working designers on issues including corporate communications, inspiration, and creative development clarifying how the design process and client relations are interrelated.

Condition: Fine. Der Titel ,This Gun Is for Hire" erinnert an den wilden Westen, wo Spezialisten angeworben wurden, um besondere Jobs zu erledigen. Hier geht es statt um Cowboys jedoch um Gestalter und ihre standige Herausforderung, personliche Design-Ansatze in realisierbare und bezahlte kommerzielle Projekte zu ubersetzen. Das Buch erlautert, wie Gestalter und Kunden zusammenarbeiten konnen, um Projekte zu entwickeln, die zugleich erfolgreich sind und ein anspruchvolles Design haben. Es beinhaltet nicht nur reichhaltige Beispiele von aktuellen Arbeiten aus Corporate-, Grafik- und Produktdesign, die Kreative, Auftraggeber und Kunden inspirieren, sondern stellt sie so dar, dass man daraus lernen kann. Die vielfaltigen Projekte von internationalen Designern wie Eikes Grafischer Hort, Fons Hickmann, Attik, Chocolate Skateboard und Hansen Ho werden anhand eindrucksvoller Bilder prasentiert und von Texten begleitet, die das Briefing sowie die daraus entstehenden Umsetzungen oder verlorene Pitches erklaren. Um das Zusammenspiel von Design-Prozess und Kundenbeziehung weiter auszumalen beinhaltet das Buch auch eine Reihe von Interviews mit und Essays von Gestaltern zu Themen wie Unternehmenskommunikation, Inspiration und kreative Entwicklung.
