Navigating the far reaches of graphic design, Steven Heller and Gail Anderson reveal how type can render a particular voice or multiple conversations, how letters in various shapes and sizes can guide the eye through dense information, and how type can become both content and illustration, as letters take the form of people, animals, cars, or planes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book features historical examples by F. T. Marinetti, Bruno Munari, and Francis Picabia, among others, as well as by contemporary designers such as Richard Eckersley, John Hendrix, Maira Kalman, and Corita Kent. The book firmly locates the letter in the realm of artistry, finding exciting common ground among the pursuits of design, illustration, writing, and typography.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46813307011330,"sku":"BK-YUP-TTT-002-L","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0401\/6226\/3204\/files\/IMG_0746_de9b9698-6866-4b87-b0f4-36c2ee9fcfe2.jpg?v=1791302879"},{"product_id":"craig-frazier-drawn","title":"Craig Frazier: Drawn","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eDrawn\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a compendium of Craig Frazier’s illustrations for the most prominent publications and businesses in America and abroad.
