Typography, Referenced is the single most comprehensive volume covering every aspect of typography that any design student, professional designer, or design aficionado needs to know today.

In these pages, you'll find:

- Thousands of illustrated examples of contemporary usage in design
- Historical developments from Greek lapidary letters to the movie Helvetica
- Landmark designs turning single letters into typefaces
- Definitions of essential type-specific language, terms, ideas, principles, and processes
- Ways technology has influenced and advanced type
- The future of type on the web, mobile devices, tablets, and beyond

In short, Typography, Referenced is the ultimate source of typographic information and inspiration, documenting and chronicling the full scope of essential typographic knowledge and design from the beginnings of moveable type to the present "golden age" of typography.

"The many authors who worked on this volume - Haley (ABC’s of Type), Richard Poulin (typography, Sch. of Visual Arts NY; The Language of Graphic Design), Jason Tselentis (Type Form and Function), Tony Seddon (Graphic Design for Non-Designers), Gerry Leonidas (typography, Univ. of Reading, UK), Ina Saltz (electronic design & multimedia, City Coll., CUNY), Kathryn Henderson (Online and on Paper), and Tyler Alterman - have created an attractive, informative book with an uncertain purpose. The introduction pitches the title as something between a reference and a book for casual perusal (likening it to Judy Jones and William Wilson’s An Incomplete Education). A later section, ostensibly on designing with type, provides plenty of colour pictures of modern applications but little textual analysis, making this section like part of a coffee-table book. However, the overall breadth of material, both conceptual and practical - including information about existing typefaces and how to work with them - and a section at the end listing schools, periodicals, conferences, museums, and websites related to typography, make it suitable as a textbook for an introductory college class on typography. Unsurprisingly, the book is also well designed. VERDICT: This title is somewhat technical for average readers, and the number of authors leads to uneven writing. Still, high school seniors and college students beginning their path toward careers as graphic designers or commercial artists will find this guide invaluable." — Library Journal

Graphic designers love music. This is attested not least by the tremendous enthusiasm that readers of the typography magazine Slanted bring to its "Typo Lyrics" column, in which designers interpret music in entirely new ways with the help of fonts.

For this publication of the same name, celebrated graphic designers like Fons Hickmann as well as talented young designers from all over the world have taken song lyrics and used them as the inspiration for innovative font designs.

The result is a collection of fascinating visuals – "typographic images" that present contemporary fonts a little bit differently. The extraordinary interplay of type design and music brings the fonts to life and practically sets them dancing. In contrast to classical pattern books and font fans, this volume provides a special, more emotional experience of typography and illustrates the great expressive potential of typefaces.

On analogy with the traditional classification of fonts, the book is organized into eleven chapters, each of which treats a particular font family and song lyrics from a particular musical style.

This is the first book in the new Typo collection, which is conceived as a source of inspiration for designers who use typography as one of the main resources in their projects –from both an expressive and communicative standpoint. The first volume of the collection is TypoMag and is dedicated to typography as used in magazines. TypoMag analyzes excellence in the use of typography, custom-made fonts and the personalized fonts used in almost 30 magazines on a variety of topics.

Featuring more than 1,700 unique designs from all over the world, TypoShirt One is the first book to focus exclusively on T-shirt typography. Spanning message and logo T-shirts to more abstract and arty models that transmit more cryptic messages, TypoShirt One showcases current and historical T-shirts from small, independent labels and artists to those created by globally recognized names and brands. Ever since the T-shirt crossed over from unadorned male innerwear item to a hugely popular unisex wardrobe staple more than half a century ago, no other piece of apparel has featured as many expressive and fascinating claims, statements, typefaces and “instant messages.” These transmitted messages gain an irreversible strength and power through the motifs that, in this book’s pages, are reduced to their substance, related to the form and content. Created for fans of graphic design, fashion and popular culture, TypoShirt One is an intriguing look at the wearable fabric canvases where these worlds–and words–meet.

The festival book develops the diagnostic theme, presenting the work of this years artists as a series of patient files in the hospital of OFFF.

Each file presents original work by the artists including some made specifically for the festival. The book allows reader feedback by way of device scan-able barcodes which will be used to develop info-graphic artwork later in the year.

This year the roster of artists includes publically submitted work alongside such luminaries as: Daniel Eatock, Lucy McRae, Radical Friend, Jessica Hische, 1st Ave Machine, Yuko Shimizu, Attik, James Victore, Andreu Balius, Brosmind, Folch Studio, Carlitos y Patricia, Mario Lombardo, Catalina Estrada, Sehsucht, Ritxi Ostáriz, Losiento, Emil Kozak...
