Summary:
This book aims to better understand the working process of the most interesting and challenging contemporary typographic designers, and to show a great variety of different examples of typography in the publishing world. It is a detailed look into editorial design, in books, magazines, newspapers, catalogues, annual reports and brochures. Type at Work presents: ‘Conceptual and Visible Thinking’, in which typography is deliberately used to support the expression of a certain concept or idea; ‘Xplicit Typography’, in which the selected projects use type as image; and "unctional Knowledge" gathering projects whose main criteria are clarity and legibility. "Type at Work" is packed with visual inspiration and provides profound insight into the use of type. The book includes work by today’s best typographic designers around the world, including Cahan & Associates, Peter Bil'ak, Martin Venezky, EumoGràphic, Frost Design, Plazm, Tau Diseño, Max Kisman, Moniteurs, Typerware, Jon Barnbrook, Orange Juice and Mieke Gerritzen. Author Andreu Balius is co-founder of the Typerware studio in Barcelona and has received numerous international design awards.
