The V&A Book of Colour in Design
A beautifully presented survey of design and the applied arts, explored not by use, material, form or date - but by colour
The V&A Book of Colour in Design is attractively simple: a celebration and exploration of colour, as revealed through objects in the world-class collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Structured by colour, it offers fascinating insights into the choices made by designers and makers from across the world and throughout history.
Each chapter begins with a brief introduction that considers the history, symbolism, and use of an individual colour. Objects - from items of jewelry, textiles, glassware and ceramics to furniture and more - are reproduced in a visual selection that explores the varied hues of every colour. However different objects within each section may be in their detail and meaning, they are united by their common colour, revealing surprising connections between them. Throughout, narrative captions bring together disparate items from across the V&A's collection to explore the universal significance of colour in art and design.
Beautifully designed, this highly visual, colour-led survey of design and the applied arts is a compelling sourcebook with broad appeal for anyone interested or involved in all aspects of visual culture.
A *Co-* Program for Graphic Design
Three new graphic design courses, detailed in this volume, comprise a critical companion to Reinfurt's bestselling DIY textbook, A *New* Program for Graphic Design
This volume expands David Reinfurt's uniquely pragmatic and experimental approach to pedagogy into a collaborative project that weaves together a multiplicity of voices to present a polyphonic approach to design history and teaching. Three of Reinfurt's new Princeton University graphic design courses-C-i-r-c-u-l-a-t-i-o-n, M-u-l-t-p-l-i-c-i-t-y and R-e-s-e-a-r-c-h-developed explicitly in the context of remote teaching and in light of urgent realignments around whose stories get told and who does the telling, are presented in this follow-up to A *New* Program for Graphic Design (Inventory Press/D.A.P., 2018). C-i-r-c-u-l-a-t-i-o-n examines the distribution networks for graphic design including electronic and conventional means. M-u-l-t-p-l-i-c-i-t-y, taught with mathematics professor Philip Ording, explores graphic design from the perspective of topology and topology through the practice of graphic design. R-e-s-e-a-r-c-h is an advanced graphic design class which cultivates an exploratory and expansive design process and investigates what the term ""design research"" has meant at different points in design history.
From these separate angles comes a collaborative and cooperative way of telling and teaching design history, taking on subjects from the Detroit Printing Co-op, Corita Kent and Charles and Ray Eames, to Giuseppe Peano, Marshall McLuhan, Sylvia Harris and Virgil Abloh. Through a series of in-depth historical case studies and assignments that progressively build in complexity, the book serves as a practical guide to visually understanding the history-and shaping the future-of our designed world.
David Reinfurt is an independent graphic designer and writer based in New York City. He worked as an interaction designer at IDEO from 1995 to 1997, where he was the lead designer for the MTA Metrocard vending machine interface. In 2000, Reinfurt formed the graphic design practice O-R-G inc., followed by Dexter Sinister in 2006 and the Serving Library in 2012. He has taught at Princeton University since 2010.

Stíny horkého léta Traudi Schönfeld
Portréty copaté dívky a otlučených věcí ze starého domu nakreslené černým pískem. Zobrazení prostá, vykořeněná ze sudetského kdysi, tak intimní, že vyvolávají ostych. Víc vzpomínka než skutečnost. Pak klíště, lesní mravenci, netopýr, pavouci, lišaj a další pohledům skrytí obyvatelé místa. Zachycení na přírodním papíře z himálajských rostlin, jehož struktura připomíná lidskou kůži. Formáty přes dva metry, jako by zdůrazňovaly, že záležitosti člověka pomíjejí, ale příroda je věčná. Mezi nimi na ramínku uniforma BDM, říšského Svazu německých dívek. Jako nová.
Erika Bornová ve svém nejnovějším cyklu kreslí a maluje, jaké to je sdílet osobní prostor se stínem z minulosti. A všude kolem temná krása rozkladu. Jedno jestli z pozůstatků věcí a těl nebo rozvrácených dějin. Tehdy, stejně jako dnes.
Jan Pištěk - Skryté příběhy / Hidden Stories
Publikace Jan Pištěk Skryté příběhy, je rekonstrukcí formativních dějů, konceptuálních a stylových proměn, jimiž Pištěkova tvorba prošla. Zároveň je výběrem z jeho klíčových děl – figurují v něm některé z realizací z velkých státních i soukromých sbírek, ale také nová tvorba z posledních let, v níž se Pištěk živě navrací k některým tématům.
V knize se tak odvíjí příběh malířovy tvorby počínaje rokem 1988 až po současnost.
Divadlo ve specifických skupinách
Odborná publikace Divadlo ve specifických skupinách: otevřený dialog jako smysl a podstata sdílené umělecké tvorby nejen ve specifické skupině je sumarizační studií, která kriticky reflektuje a shrnuje poznatky, myšlenky, východiska výzkumné i umělecké práce ve specifických skupinách s lidmi se znevýhodněním na Divadelní fakultě AMU v Praze (DAMU).

Věnuje se zejména základním metodickým principům a přístupům v umělecké tvorbě ve specifických skupinách, důležitosti výzkumných a pedagogických aktivit v této oblasti umělecké tvorby na Divadelní fakultě AMU v Praze, ale také přínosu stran socializace, integrace a inkluze lidí se specifickými potřebami.
Graphic Design. 1890-Today
A vivid history of 150 years of graphic design
Through the turbulent events of the last century-and-a-half, graphic design—with its vivid, neat synthesis of image and idea—has distilled the spirit of each age. It surrounds us every minute of the day, from minimalist packaging to colorful adverts, environmental graphics to sleek interfaces: graphic design is as much about reflecting society’s aspirations and values as it is about transmitting information.
Now published as part of our popular Basic Art series, this vibrant compendium lays out the evolution of graphic design from its inception in the 1890s up until the present day. Using his sweeping knowledge of the field, author Jens Müller has curated hundreds of examples from across the globe, arranged by decade.
Each chapter also includes thumbnails of significant movements and influential publications, plus concise biographies of design masterminds like Massimo Vignelli (New York subway wayfinding), Otl Aicher (Lufthansa identity), Paula Scher (Citibank identity), Milton Glaser (I Love New York), Louise Fili (packaging), and Stefan Sagmeister (handwritten posters).
This succinct but authoritative collection reflects on the development of a creative field that is constantly changing and challenging itself. The design classics Müller has curated act as coordinates, helping to trace the incontrovertible influence of graphic design on our daily lives. It’s both a handy primer and an informed exploration of how graphic design shapes our choices, from the products we buy and the media we consume, to how we behave and think of ourselves.
Bruce Weber. My Education
Reflections on a Big Life in Photography
A Deep Dive into Bruce Weber’s Photographic Journey
My Education provides a revealing look into the life, work and creative journey of one of our era’s preeminent image-makers, Bruce Weber. Featuring over 500 photographs, including a collection of his most iconic images as well as previously unpublished and lesser-known photographs, the volume provides a profound exploration of his oeuvre.
Rather than following a simple chronological order, it is organized thematically, reflecting how key ideas like family, creativity, physicality, humanism, sexuality, and expression have fueled Weber’s lifelong curiosity. This approach offers an unparalleled view of his photographic evolution.
The book showcases the fashion photography and portraiture Weber is renowned for, unforgettable images for major fashion magazines, including Vogue, GQ, W Magazine, and Vanity Fair. It also highlights rare editorial selections and previously unseen reportage photographs. Beyond the realm of fashion, Weber has immortalized some of the most influential cultural and political figures of our time. From Anselm Kiefer to Kim Kardashian, Louise Bourgeois to Leonardo DiCaprio—Weber’s unique ability to capture the essence of each subject, whether in intimate portraits or dynamic editorial shots, has made him one of the most revered image-makers of his generation.
This volume is more than just a visual journey—it’s a personal tribute to the spirit of collaboration, mutual inspiration, and the pursuit of creative expression. Punctuated by a collection of personal narratives and texts by Charles Bukowski, Rupert Brooke, John Steinbeck and many others, this volume celebrates the teachers, friends, collaborators and influences that shaped Bruce Weber’s singularly impactful approach to photography and filmmaking. In deeply personal anecdotes about close collaborators like Grace Coddington, Dennis Freedman or Stella Tennant, Weber reminisces about bonds that go deeper than mere professional collaboration.
Information Graphics. 45th Ed.
How complex ideas are communicated via graphics
“If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.”
—Albert Einstein
Our everyday lives are filled with a massive flow of information that we must interpret in order to understand the world we live in. Considering the complex variety of data floating around us, sometimes the best—or even only—way to communicate is visually. This unique book presents a fascinating perspective on the subject, highlighting the work of the masters of the profession, creators of breakthroughs that have changed the way we communicate. Information Graphics has been conceived and designed not just for graphics professionals, but for anyone interested in the history and practice of communicating visually.
The in-depth introductory section, illustrated with over 60 images (each accompanied by an explanatory caption), features essays by Sandra Rendgen, Paolo Ciuccarelli, Richard Saul Wurman, and Simon Rogers. Looking back all the way to primitive cave paintings as a means of communication, this section gives readers an excellent overview of the subject. The second part of the book is entirely dedicated to contemporary works by today’s most renowned professionals, presenting 200 graphics projects, with over 400 examples—each with a fact sheet and an explanation of methods and objectives—divided into chapters by the topics Location, Time, Category, and Hierarchy.
Logo Beginnings. Logo Modernism. 45th Ed.
A 100-year history of the origins and evolution of the trademark
By the late 19th century, trademarks began to replace traditional emblems, like coats of arms, as identifying symbols for companies. At first, logos tended to be figurative, but over time they morphed into the abstract marks that we see everywhere today. Yet many iconic brands—like Rolex, BMW, Louis Vuitton, and the New York Yankees—still use logos designed 100 years ago.
Bringing together two previous volumes—Logo Beginnings and Logo Modernism—into one compendium, design expert Jens Müller (dubbed “the logo detective” by Wired magazine) has trawled historical trademark archives and design publications to unearth 1000s of logos from as far back as 1870, including many forgotten designs and early versions of today’s brand identifiers.
For clarity and ease of reference, both the Beginnings and Modernism sections are divided into categories (like Pictorial, Form, Effect, and Typographic) with each category further subdivided by basic design elements, like circle, line, alphabet, overlay, dots and squares.
For context, in addition to the author’s essay on the history of the trademark, R. Roger Remington writes on modernism in graphic design, plus there are profiles of eight seminal designers—including Paul Rand, Yusaku Kamekura, and Anton Stankowski.
Covering everything from media outfits to retail giants, airlines to art galleries, this is an invaluable resource for graphic designers, advertisers, and branding experts. It will also delight fans of cultural and corporate history, and anyone fascinated by the persuasive power of image and form.

The Book of Colour Concepts. 45th Ed.
The human history of color
The earliest forms of human creativity – in carvings, markings, and cave paintings – bear witness to humanity’s engagement with color. Almost as old as these examples is the desire to assign structure, order, and meaning to this universal yet elusive concept, and it is this fascination that unites the works compiled in this expansive edition.
Gathering over 40 rare books and manuscripts from a wealth of institutions, including the most distinguished color collections worldwide, The Book of Colour Concepts takes the reader on a chromatic odyssey across four centuries and over 350 images of luscious wheels and globes, painstakingly collated charts, and meticulous diagrams, many of them newly photographed exclusively for this edition.
Seminal works of color theory, such as Isaac Newton’s Opticks and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s hugely significant Zur Farbenlehre, are shown alongside rare and unfamiliar contributions, including the theosophical color systems of Charles Webster Leadbeater and Annie Besant, the comprehensive color ‘dictionary’ of Aloys John Maerz and Morris Rea Paul, and the patchwork combinations of the Japanese costume designer and artist Sanzo Wada.
This volume also brings many intriguing and often overlooked works by women into the spotlight, including the radically inventive color “blots” of the English flower painter Mary Gartside.
The color systems that make up this edition are contextualized by an introductory essay from Alexandra Loske, while authoritative texts on the works reproduced set out each concept in further detail. Illuminating the history of color in all its shapes and forms, The Book of Colour Concepts offers a chromatic chronology unparalleled in scope.

Hokusai. Shunga
Beneath the Kimono
The master’s complete erotica, gathered in one arresting volume
If you think you know Hokusai (1760–1849), think again. Long before The Great Wave, the great master turned his hand (and eye) to something altogether more intimate. From maidservants and wives to courtesans, lovers, and curious onlookers – and, yes, an infamous pair of frisky octopuses – Hokusai’s shunga (literally “spring pictures”) are bold, joyful, and often laugh-out-loud funny.
This comprehensive portfolio brings together eight complete books and print sets from 1786–1823, with many of their accompanying narratives penned by the artist himself. Blending the visual with the verbal, the pages brim with exaggerated anatomy, impish voyeurism, tender exchanges, and a surprisingly egalitarian attitude to enjoyment for both sexes.
In contrast to the prudery of 18th-century Europe, Edo-period (1603–1868) Japan accepted sexuality as a natural part of life. With shunga officially banned but tolerated in practice, many reputable artists navigated government censorship to embrace the genre with gusto, albeit under pseudonyms. These works were made to entertain, to arouse, and even used for good luck – samurai carried them as talismans when going into battle. Technical innovations in printing during Hokusai’s lifetime allowed for rich colours and exquisitely rendered textiles, but the content remained delightfully human: full of risky rendezvous, stolen moments, and scenes of marital (or extra-marital) bliss.
Realized with new photography of these rare works, and complemented by an in-depth introduction and explanatory essays, this retrospective offers gorgeous glimpses into a lesser-known but wildly imaginative thread in Hokusai’s over 70-year career: proof, perhaps, that great masters have their guilty pleasures too.
