From the Back Cover
Cette oeuvre dont la première édition, depuis longtemps épuisée, remonte à 1965, se présente dans une version nouvelle entièrement revue. Au moment de sa parution, ce livre pouvait être considéré comme un essai fondamentalement neuf de traiter méthodiquement les problèmes posés par la création de l'image et de la forme.
Son objectif est de progresser pas à pas en partant du plus simple pour aller aux principes, au différencié jusqu'au compliqué. Les éléments de l'image et de la forme sont analysés et étudiés dans leur légitimité. Les connaissances obtenues par l'étude logique de la matière peuvent s'apprendre. Elles appartiennent à l'arsenal de tout graphiste et de tout typographe. L'enseignement méthodique de la création trouve aujourd'hui un emploi également dans la création au petit écran. Le traitement automatique des textes au moyen de l'ordinateur personnel se répand de plus en plus. Le procédé dit "Desktop Publishing" (composition automatique pour le bureau) exige conceptualisation et méthode.
Cet ouvrage ordonné selon une systématique adaptée à l'ordinateur rendra ainsi de précieux services comme manuel d'introduction pour ce nouveau groupe d'utilisateurs.
Armin Hofmann's richly varied work is recognized for its reliance on the fundamental elements of graphic form - point, line, and shape - and the economic use of color and fonts. The thoroughly revised edition of the 1965 design manual classic is still setting standards. Especially in times of the return to clear and minimalistic geometric forms and patterns, his rich body of work serves as a perfect starting point for contemporary design practices.
Elements of image and form are analyzed and examined with regard to their inherent laws. To correspond to the contemporary design techniques, this new edition is divided into computer-system-friendly sections. Thus adapting Hofmann's methods to the requirement of modern design practices and serving as a valuable handbook for a new generation of designers.
- revised edition of the 1965 design manual
- adapted to modern design practices
- divided into computer-system-friendly sections
- detailed analyses of image elements
- easy to use examples and instructions

Store description
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others.
