Libro illeggibile MN1
$7.95
(available to order)
Summary:
In 1949, Munari designed a series of “libri illeggibili” (illegible books), which abandon textual communication in favour of aesthetic function. Paper is no longer the support for the text; it also communicates a message through the format, the colour, the cuts and their successions. The elements that usually set up a book (like the colophon and the title-page) are(...)

In 1949, Munari designed a series of “libri illeggibili” (illegible books), which abandon textual communication in favour of aesthetic function. Paper is no longer the support for the text; it also communicates a message through the format, the colour, the cuts and their successions. The elements that usually set up a book (like the colophon and the title-page) are omitted, and the reading plays like a melody, with different tones through the sequence of the pages.

Look into my eyes
$47.99
(available to order)
Summary:
The theme of “faces” so dear to Munari here turns almost into a game played with the eyes and the different ways of seeing things: “…mix up drawings, change the colour of the eyes, help us to see things through other people’s eyes…”. Bruno Munari suggests how to use the 25 loose coloured pages, all with eye holes.

Summary:
Ce quatrième titre de la collection « :T » est un témoignage de l’expérience de Bruno Munari en tant que professeur. Le designer italien, célèbre pour ses œuvres inventives et libres, ses ouvrages pour adultes et enfants, et sa défense d’une création épurée et en mouvement, a en effet donné en 1967 un cours de communication visuelle à Harvard. La première partie de ce livre reproduit les lettres qu’il écrivait durant cette période à un quotidien milanais, y racontant avec humour son expérience d’« expatrié » et avec pédagogie son quotidien de professeur. La seconde partie reproduit ce qui servit de base au cours dispensé par Munari : des notes, des exemples, des schémas, etc. L’œuvre professorale de Munari mérite d’être découverte pour sa simplicité, sa plume alerte et les points de vue qu’elle défend. L’auteur y prône une vision pragmatique de l’enseignement, qui refuse toute prétention ou conceptualisation vaniteuse pour se tourner vers des réflexions sensées et utiles à la pratique future des designers et créateurs graphiques.

Summary:
In the early 1960s, Italian design legend Bruno Munari published his visual case studies on shapes: Circle, Square, and, a decade later, Triangle. Using examples from ancient Greece and Egypt, as well as works by Buckminster Fuller, Le Corbusier, and Alvar Aalto, Munari invests the three shapes with specific qualities: the circle relates to the divine, the square signifies safety and enclosure, and the triangle provides a key connective form for designers. For the first time, this trilogy is published as a single volume.
