The average person sees thousands of words each day that are put into the environment by typographers, designers and artisans. But, why do we need more typefaces? How should a designer use those typefaces in order to stay true to typographers' intentions, as well as the message? And, what principles should designers follow at the planning and design stages? Type, Form & Function answers these questions and more by dissecting the mechanics of typography, giving graphic designers the information to communicate their message more effectively through type - an essential reference for layout and design.
Chapter 1: FORM covers type anatomy with a spectrum of examples designed for text and display uses.
Chapter 2: COMPOSITION demonstrates the formal devices that designers employ for layout.
Chapter 3: PRINCIPLES reveals details that focus on the nuances of layout, colour, and readability.
Chapter 4: EXPERIMENTATION showcases painstakingly created letterforms and designs that defy conventional thinking about typography.

Beyond chuffed! Fantastic books at ridiculously cheap prices. Beautifully packed too.Yay!
Really interesting books. I have been collecting art books for many years and I now have quite a few from Books About Art. Sensible prices and the opportunity to support a local (to me) independent book shop instead of Amazon
What an unusual andfantastic book. So interesting and beautifully presented and bound. What a wonderful project.
Brilliant book and price
The Great William Hogarth.
Informative book.
Independent bookshop run by Guy, great books great value prices !
Really impressed with this book store. The prices are very good, my order was delivered quickly, and there’s a brilliant variety of interesting titles to choose from. A smooth, reliable experience from start to finish.
I thought I already knew a great deal about Adge Cutler, but Adge – King of the Wurzels proved me wrong in the best possible way. Packed with fresh stories, fascinating insights, and meticulous detail, it sheds new light on the man behind the music. The writing is engaging and highly readable—I repeatedly found myself reading far longer than I had intended.
Entertaining, informative, and genuinely difficult to put down, this is a must-read for any Wurzels fan. Although I'm Welsh rather than West Country, Adge's appeal reaches far beyond Somerset. His talent, character, and legacy transcend regional boundaries, and this book captures them brilliantly.
Great communication, and book exactly as described
I wasn’t aware these books existed until I came across your web site,both great especially the book about the Colston Hall
Quality and speed of delivery excellent
Always very prompt service, well-packed delivery, a great place to get good books, including those I never knew I wanted 😄, at a discounted price!
Amazing compilation of the great fanzine Jamming! Edited by Tony Fletcher. Well worth buying!
