Book Description
"A trailblazer in its day, Typographica is ripe for rediscovery and reappraisal by a new generation of designers and image-makers. Its boundary-blurring fusion of modernist experimentation, visual and concrete poetry, and environmental photography anticipated many of the preoccupations of contemporary designers, artists, and cultural commentators." "Rick Poyner offers a carefully researched and illustrated book, paying tribute to the significant contribution Herbert Spencer and Typographica made to graphic design history."--BOOK JACKET.

Just My Type
Author: Simon Garfield
Publisher: Profile Books
ISBN: 1847652921
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Just My Type is not just a font book, but a book of stories. About how Helvetica and Comic Sans took over the world. About why Barack Obama opted for Gotham, while Amy Winehouse found her soul in 30s Art Deco. About the great originators of type, from Baskerville to Zapf, or people like Neville Brody who threw out the rulebook, or Margaret Calvert, who invented the motorway signs that are used from Watford Gap to Abu Dhabi. About the pivotal moment when fonts left the world of Letraset and were loaded onto computers ... and typefaces became something we realised we all have an opinion about. As the Sunday Times review put it, the book is 'a kind of Eats, Shoots and Leaves for letters, revealing the extent to which fonts are not only shaped by but also define the world in which we live.' This edition is available with both black and silver covers.
