A reference tool for the branding of current protest developments in context with historic relevant protest movements.

Branded Protest researches the power of branding and its influence on current protest movements, giving examples of unique branding efforts that support protest. Branding, a term normally associated with corporate profit goals, should be seen in a larger context and has a bigger role we sometimes misunderstand. This book takes a closer look at the relationship between “branding” and “protest”.

One of the movements the book highlights is Black Lives Matter. The chapter on BLM features an interview with Design Action Collective, the creative behind the logo and online presence of Black Lives Matter; a piece on DeRay Mckesson, a Black Lives Matter activist and prominent member, to show how a person can function as a brand; and to discuss body language as a branding tool, it takes a look at Colin Kaepernick's kneeling protest.

In a time of hypermediation, visual stimulation generally holds the key to the success of a message. To streamline the process, branding is becoming an essential part of the communication channel. The success of protest actions are increased by good branding. When executed well, branding allows connection with like-minded people and visions, reflects values, inspires people to take action, and helps people feel part of something bigger.

Several important individuals from various protest movements of the last two decades have been interviewed throughout the book, such as Terrie Ng from the The Umbrella Movement; Amy Hayes Stellhorn from the Women's March; Clare Farrell, Miles Glyn, Clive Russell and Charlie Waterhouse from Extinction Rebellion; and many more. Organisers, activists, strategists, artists and designers from around the world have contributed to this book. Branded Protest highlights examples where the branding aspect is an essential part of the movement. It looks particular at branding methods and the actions amplified by the protesters.

Whether the task is to redesign a company's identity or the promotional launch of a new product or service, business graphics are the bread and butter of the design industry. This new volume presents a vast array of work within the corporate sector-solutions that have helped business clients succeed. Although many design magazines dedicate complete issues to this topic, very few publications look at this area of graphic design in such a comprehensive manner. This book not only provides hundreds of innovative examples of great design for business, but also examines the critical thinking behind the featured work and addresses the challenges those designers overcame.

This book offers a collection of graphic projects which feature calligraphy and hand-crafted graphics in general as the exclusive or primary medium for communication. Calligraphy differs from computer graphics because of its quality and unquestionable originality. An inscription carried out by hand communicates so much more than a standard typography. This volume presents a collection of inscriptions, titles and signs found in work in diverse commercial sectors, such as packaging, fashion, the publishing industry and graphic advertising in general. An international line-up of twenty-three professional calligraphers (including Italian, Spanish, Argentine and Swiss calligraphers) have contributed to the featured projects, all clearly divided into different subject areas.

China’s ornamental tradition ranks among the foremost in the world. The motifs used vary from abstract and geometric forms to more realistic images of natural phenomena, or of typical objects such as gongs and lanterns. Flowers are a distinct inspiration to Chinese decorative art, both in stylised form and as exact representations. Other compositions may be inspired by plants or animals, including mythological creatures such as the dragon and the phoenix.

Chinese Patterns presents a collection of very colourful and highly decorative images from the vast Chinese area.
