Book Synopsis Just My Type by : Simon Garfield
Download or read book Just My Type written by Simon Garfield. This book was released on 2010-10-21. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just My Type is not just a font book, but a book of stories. About how Helvetica and Comic Sans took over the world. About why Barack Obama opted for Gotham, while Amy Winehouse found her soul in 30s Art Deco. About the great originators of type, from Baskerville to Zapf, or people like Neville Brody who threw out the rulebook, or Margaret Calvert, who invented the motorway signs that are used from Watford Gap to Abu Dhabi. About the pivotal moment when fonts left the world of Letraset and were loaded onto computers ... and typefaces became something we realised we all have an opinion about. As the Sunday Times review put it, the book is 'a kind of Eats, Shoots and Leaves for letters, revealing the extent to which fonts are not only shaped by but also define the world in which we live.' This edition is available with both black and silver covers.

Book Synopsis Typography for the People by : Daniel Bellon
Download or read book Typography for the People written by Daniel Bellon. This book was released on 2010-06-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Street + Art = Inspiration Designers Daniel and Klaus Bellon have been photographing street signage around the world for more than 17 years. This book celebrates their love of typography, and highlights the beauty of type in its truest form; not as a profession but as a necessity of everyday life. The images captured here are at times humorous, unexpected and even charming. But for those who understand the rules that are being broken, these explorations of type design are refreshing and inspiring. Even though graphic designers often think of themselves as the keepers of letterforms and typography, they do not own them. Typography belongs to everyone. Typography belongs to the people. Includes a royalty-free CD with 15 original fonts inspired by signs in the book. Type images were collected from countries around the world, including the United States, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Belize, Canada, Colombia, Venezuela, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, and Malaysia.
