typo*
A Scrapbook of Typographic Obsession
ISBN: 9781911422327
(HB - EN)
€
Designer Andy Altmann has been pursuing an obsession with typographic oddities for more than 30 years; and he's not necessarily interested in the kind of thing you might expect. He delights in the weird and wonderful and finds inspiration in the ordinary. At last, he has organised his typographic hits and misses in a 400-page, whopper of a scrapbook.
Conceived and edited by Andy, typo* is a cornucopia of curiosities. Between its covers you'll find everything from Swiss minimalism to Victorian street signs, from soap packets to magazine covers, from high art to the handmade. Essential is too small a word for this book: every graphic designer and typographer should have a copy. Keep it by the keyboard or refer to it secretly when stuck for an idea, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it.
*typo (noun): an error (as of spelling) in typed or typeset material; (abbr.) typography or typographer.
