Collated by one of Australia s most prominent writers on architecture and design, Request.Response.Reaction is a long overdue precis that will fit well onto the shelf of any designer, retailer, wholesaler, manufacturer, exporter, and anyone interested in the design industry of Australia and New Zealand.
It is a great introduction to and study of the key players, their awards, achievements and exhibitions. Crafti interviewed each designer and presents in his informative and sophisticated manner a 500-word descriptive text on each designer, and a brief overview of the specific field.

This is a fascinating look at the medium of the poster in the current climate of competing electronic communication. Angharad Lewis, from the UK magazine, Grafik, discusses the success or failure of the poster as a medium today, against rival mediums such as email and the internet. Is the traditional democracy and accessibility of the public poster still relevant, when contrasted with the closely targeted audience of electronic media.
The history of the poster and contemporary approaches are discussed, as well as poster-specific graphics, illustration, photography and typography. More than 100 posters are presented, each with an illuminating discussion of problem, solution, background, budget and mechanical details.
A highly entertaining, contemporary and informative book about an enduring art form. |

Public Address System is a collection of posters by typographers that were featured in an exhibition of the same name in London and Berlin in 2004. The brief was simple: to design an A2 poster that was a typographic interpretation of a speech. The typographers' responses are awe-inspiring and provoke deep thought about not only the issues addressed by the often famous speeches, but also about the very nature of speech, typography and posters.
The featured works are made from all manner of materials, from Perspex, to gold foil, to a collage, including torn book pages and a 7-inch vinyl record. These highly innovative approaches to poster design endorse the importance of typography in visual culture and its power in everyday life; what emerged from the exhibition, above all else, was that far from being dry or retiring, typography arouses passion. |

The power of the illustration is brilliantly demonstrated in another compact volume from New York designer Bob Gill. In this book, simply but eloquently entitled 'Illustration', he features many of his favourite works, completed between 1952 and 2004.
Subjects for his often whimsical, but always potent illustrations range from people and things to the more fanciful characters that populate the several children's books he has written and illustrated. Some subjects have been at the centre of successful advertising campaigns, others are less overt, but particularly powerful political statements. A short, witty description places each image into the context of its time and purpose. |

This superbly presented volume is an elegant and compelling look at the work of Massimo and Lella Vignelli, two internationally acclaimed names who have become synonymous with modern design. Encompassing some of the most iconic images of the 20th century, from New York's famous Subway signs to the bold bags of Bloomingdale's department stores, Vignelli designs have become part of contemporary culture, and this inspirational book takes readers on an aesthetic, alphabetical journey from Helvetica to Style typography and of course the Vignellis themselves: the names behind the names.
There are also delightful insights into the inspiration behind interiors, dinnerware, furniture, fashion, newspapers, magazines and architecture, all captured with typical Vignelli typographical flair. 'An architect should be able to design everything from the spoon to the city,' repeats Massimo Vignelli throughout A to Z, and this talented duo have certainly done that.
A highly entertaining resource for architects, designers and graphic artists, as well as anyone who loves the beauty of modern design, Vignellii: From A to Z is pure aesthetic magic. |

Vignelli is a powerful name in graphic design. IMAGES' Hands On series is greatly enhanced by this wonderful new book by Massimo and Lella Vignelli. Massimo learnt early in his career that a designer should be able to design everything, hence, 'design is one.' Lella and Massimo Vignelli prove that design should be semantically correct, syntactically consistent, and pragmatically understandable, but also visually powerful, intellectually elegant, and timeless. The book shows that real meanings must be researched and consistent throughout a design, and that the final result must be understandable.
Design as a complete, or perfect statement is paramount in this designer's philosophy. Featuring design for corporate identity, packaging, post design, interior design, architectural graphics, book and magazine design, furniture design and product design, many with instant global recognition. |
