About Texts From Graphics Knjiga

Texts From Graphics je knjiga eseja koje su napisali profesori grafičkog dizajna sa jednog univerzitetskog programa u Meksiku. Eseji izražavaju ideje i razmišljanja o dizajnu. Razvijen je ikonografski sistem kako bi se pojednostavili složeni koncepti obrađeni u tekstovima, a set ikona menja se sa svakim poglavljem. Hijerarhija, izbor tipografije i kompozicija ističu glavne poruke i doprinose lakšem čitanju. Knjiga je štampana crno-belo na bezdrvnom papiru, šivena po tabacima i ukoričena tvrdim koricama završenim lakom, čime se zadržavaju niski troškovi proizvodnje uz istovremeno obezbeđivanje trajnosti.

The main obstacle of this project was the low budget available for the realization of the book. As it is a book made to praise the graphic design of the university high quality and formality was expected, using economical methods and materials.

The creative processes and the design methodologies used in design were deeply analyzed in order to have a better insight of the topics dealt with in the essays, and to be able express effectively the conceps with the iconographic system.
Inspiration
The book originates from the need of the University of Monterrey to represent the graphic design program. The objective is to show the ideas of the professors of the university and the growth that the career has had through their professional perspective.
