Just as film, art, music, and literature have the power to move people, this work shows that graphic design can also cut to the emotional core. It covers twenty years of the author's graphic design and features images from the studio archive as well as specific influences and reference points for his projects and ideas.
Aimed at the independent-minded, this handbook addresses the concerns of young designers who want to earn a living by doing expressive and meaningful work but want to avoid becoming a hired drone working on soulless projects. It includes interviews with 10 leading designers.
Contains projects that began as a list that the author found in his diary under the title 'Things I have learned in my life so far'. This collection is part design project, part work of art, part examination of the pursuit of happiness.
This book calls itself an anti-monograph. It tells the unromantic tale of two unestablished guys trying to build a design business and how they muddle through, while creating exceptional work in the process.
