The Design

About Texts From Graphics Bog

Texts From Graphics er en bog med essays skrevet af grafisk design-professorer fra et universitetsprogram i Mexico. Essayene udtrykker idéer og bekymringer om design. Der blev udviklet et ikonografisk system til at forenkle de komplekse begreber, der diskuteres i teksterne, og ikonsættet ændrer sig fra kapitel til kapitel. Hierarki, typografisk valg og komposition fremhæver hovedbudskaberne og understøtter en let læseoplevelse. Bogen er trykt i sort-hvid på bondpapir, syet i hæfter og indbundet med hårde permer, der er efterbehandlet med lak, hvilket holder produktionsomkostningerne lave og samtidig sikrer holdbarhed.
