75b_book_launch

last night i attended the launch of the latest monograph on rotterdam design heroes ’75b’ at the fons welters gallery in amsterdam

the book is great compilation of their career and excellent design work and even contains a hilarious spoof design novella written by ‘rens muis’, shown above is my own customised cover… worth getting hold of a copy for yourself

in the run up to the launch of their new book, the bizarrely titled: ‘arab spring & aaron winter’ design studio 75b will be doing a talk in amsterdam on the 22nd of april, the subject of the talk and the book is the constant duality and friction in design between autonomous and commercial practice

90 degrees

90_degrees_ibook

designer andrew kim created this wonderful ibook 90 degrees on the phenomenon known as ‘knolling’

the book is a great example of how to apply book design to new technology in an understated way… inspiring (at least i think so)
