Product Description
Product Description
Rick Poynor chronicles the issues and individuals that made graphic communication such an exciting cultural activity in the past decades. He tracks a lineage that runs from Stewart Mackinnon at Oz and Nova to Neville Brody's innovations of the 1980s and Dirk van Dooren's work at Tomato, and interviews other leading designers.

Format:Paperback
This is not a "book of new design work full of seductive imagery, "to use a phrase from the author himself, which are all to common in the design world. Design Without Boundaries is the writings, interviews and reflections, by Rick Poynor, on some of the most important issues to affect graphic design and visual communication in the late 80's to the mid 90's.It explores the ways in which new experimental typography and image-making are collapsing the boundaries between art and design. Providing analysis and criticism in the field of graphic communication in a profession which is generally lacking in both. Rick Poynor takes graphic communication beyond the "sliver of paper" examines how it affects modern culture and society
John Thackara, Director, Netherlands Design Institute is quoted on the jacket "If you only read one more book about graphic design this century, read this one." and I couldn't agree more!
