DESIGN ANNUAL 2003 (Graphis Design Annual)
by
B. Martin Pederson (Editor)
/
Graphis Press (Editor)
DesignAddict review:
History of the Poster, co-written by Josef and Shizuko Müller-Brockmann, is an account of one of the most prolific visual traditions of our culture. The book presents an exhaustive collection of posters, ranging from the end of the nineteenth century until the early seventies, when the book was published for the first time. Conceived, written and designed by one of the best and most influential poster designers of the twentieth century, the book defines the nature of a poster and indicates the laws of designing it. The author guides us through the formation and evolution of style with his brilliant selection of images. Originally published in 1971, this important study is well written and heavily illustrated. History of the Poster is an essential read for anyone intrigued by this most modern medium. This reprint has not tampered with the original edition's design or layout and stays true to Müller-Brockmann's original concept. - A. Rassmussen -
Every year Graphis collects the best examples of outstanding designs across a range of disciplines. Like its predecessors, Design Annual 2003 includes high-quality color reproductions, detailed indexes, and complete credits. This year?s collection showcases more than 300 color works that reflect current artistic trends as well as classic interpretations of design solutions, categorized by corporate identity, exhibit, product, and interactive and typographic design. This reference is extremely popular with design professionals and creative personnel worldwide and Design Annual 2003 is the most comprehensive of all the Graphis annuals.

North Light Books (Editor)
Idea Index kick-started a revolution in graphic design books, unique in size, feel--and most important--wealth of ideas. Layout Index is the next step, a compendium of layout idea-generators that will help designers explore multiple possibilities for visual treatments each time they turn the page. The visual and textual suggestions are divided into eight major areas, including newsletters, flyers, posters, brochures, advertising, stationery, page layout, and Web pages. Each of these examples are designed to inspire effective solutions in the viewer's mind, rather than simply give specific answers to design problems. The tone and temperament of the design problems, as well as their solutions, vary from traditional to cutting-edge, from corporate to crazy. Designers will learn to solve their design problems, produce fantastic work and become better, more creative thinkers. * Both creativity books and layout books are extremely popular * As proven by Idea Index, the format of this book is a proven winner with designers

Merz to Emigre and Beyond: Avant-Garde Magazine Design of the Twentieth Century
by
Steven Heller (Author)
/
Phaidon Press (Editor)
Merz to EmigrÈ and Beyond is a historical survey of avant-garde cultural and political magazines and newspapers from the early twentieth century to the present day. The book features a unique selection of international publications from Europe and the USA - including Merz (1920s), View (1940s), East Village Other (1960s), Punk (1970s), Raw (1980s) and EmigrÈ (1990s). The design of these magazines, often raucous and undisciplined, was as ground-breaking as the ideas they disseminated. Many were linked with controversial art, literary and political movements such as Dada, Surrealism, Modernism, the New Left and Deconstruction. They contain the work of many leading experimental artists and designers of their time - from Kurt Schwitters and El Lissitzky in the 1920s and 30s, to Art Spiegelman and Rudy Vanderland in the 1980s and 90s. Steven Heller is a Senior Art Director at the New York Times and co-chair of the MFA/Design Program of the School of Visual Arts in New York. A respected authority in the design world, he has written and co-authored numerous publications, including Paul Rand, also published by Phaidon.
