The Basic series explores the basic fundamentals of graphic design, and Basic Type is the newest book in this successful series. Basic Type aims not at exploring the creation and design of typographies like many other books, but rather the practical use of typographies in design. The book explores how to effectively select different typographies for any type of design: posters, business cards, shirts, signage, and more.

From the beginning of time, we’ve sought ways to categorise and catalogue the world around us, through maps and other geographic drawings. Now in today’s modern and globalised world, we can focus our attention not only on simple cartography but rather in the development of the map as an essential symbol of design. The new book Geo Graphic celebrates geography and maps in all their creative uses and applications, featuring a wide array of design projects inspired by geographic elements. Using both traditional map imagery and creative new illustrations or interpretations of geography, these projects include everything from product packaging to furniture, all exploring a graphic representation of the geography that surrounds us.

TYPODARIUM is the daily dose of typography. A tear-off calendar, just like the one our grandma used to hang in the kitchen. But this calendar unveils a new font everyday. We can therefore have, a whole year long, the chance to broaden our knowledge, to discover the font's history and developement, to possess a piece of jewellery that is new everyday. On the front, the font will be prominently displayed, and on the back it will be described in details. How it originated, from what or who came the inspiration and where we can obtain the font. TYPODARIUM makes you addicted to type! Those, who get their daily dose of type inspiration from this type calendar with its fresh type designs, know it very well as well as the juries around the world who awarded TYPODARIUM several times. For 2013 again, the editors collected typographic curiosities and high-quality typefaces to give your daily life a wide font diversity.
