"To the layman, all printing types look the same. But for typographers, graphic artists and others of that lunatic fringe who believe that the letters we look at daily (and take entirely for granted) are of profound importance, the question of how letters are formed, what shape they assume, and how they have evolved remains one of passionate and continuing concern. Lawson explores the vast territory of types, their development and uses, their antecedents and offspring, with precision, insight, and clarity. Written for the layman but containing exhaustive research, drawings and synopses of typefaces, this book is an essential addition to the library of anyone s typographic library. It is, as Lawson states, not written for the printer convinced that there are already too many typefaces, but rather for that curious part of the population that believes the opposite; that the subtleties of refinement as applies to roman and cursive letters have yet to be fully investigated and that the production of the perfect typeface remains a goal to be as much desired by present as by future type designers. Anyone aspiring to typographic wisdom should own and treasure this classic."--Amazon description.

The international creation of typefaces after 1950 was decisively influenced by the Swiss type designer Adrian Frutiger. His Univers typeface and the machine-readable font OCR-B, which was adopted as an ISO standard, are milestones, as is his type for the Paris airports, which set new standards for signage types and evolved into the Frutiger typeface. With his corporate types, he helped to define the public profiles of companies such as the Japanese Shiseido line of cosmetics. In all he created some fifty types, including Ondine, Méridien, Avenir, and Vectora. Based on conversations with Frutiger himself and on extensive research in France, England, Germany, and Switzerland, this publication provides a highly detailed and accurate account of the type designer’s artistic development. For the first time, all of his types – from the design phase to the marketing stage – are illustrated and analyzed with reference to the technology and related types. Hitherto unpublished types that were never realized and more than one hundred logos complete the picture.

Based on a simplification of design rules derived from nature, the organic form and delicate yet forceful line of Art Nouveau are wonderfully evident in this outstanding collection of typefaces. Dan X. Solo, noted typographer and printing historian, presents an impressive as well as practical selection of Art Nouveau type, representative of the elegantly ornamental design style that has remained popular through the years. Eight exquisite typefaces make up this collection: Artistik, Bocklin, Baldur, Auriol, Carmen, Franconia, Siegfried, and Edda Bold. Each royalty-free style is conveniently shown in 24-, 36-, and 48-point sizes and is clearly printed on one side only on repro-quality stock so you can cut and combine letters directly from this book. And each font is complete with uppercase characters, numerals, and punctuation; most include lowercase characters, too. Perfect for adding the flavor of Art Nouveau to any creative project, these classic turn-of-the-century typefaces also work well with contemporary design concepts. Use them to add a touch of romantic nostalgia and fantasy to letterheads and greeting cards, point-of-purchase and packaging, display advertising and direct-mail pieces — any personal or commercial design projects that will come alive with the special sparkle of Art Nouveau.
