Moleskine Books

A social communication project presented through 930 posters by graphic artists from around the world on subjects such as global warming, human rights, sexually transmitted diseases and other important social issues, created for various NGOs, charities, institutions and social volunteering organizations (including Amref, Amnesty International and Greenpeace) and collected by the Cultural Association Good Design. This anthology tells the history of the project - started in 2007 - through all the posters selected by an international jury of renowned graphic designers, including Massimo Vignelli and Alain Le Quernec, together with original texts and an illustrated account of the initiative. A reference book for whoever searches for a source for the communication of social causes, backed up by an online database with all 10,000 entries, and an inspiration for graphic studios and young graphic designers.

For over three decades, graphic artist, designer and illustrator John Alcorn (1935- 1992) had a unique and powerful influence on advertising and publishing in America and Europe. Evolution By Design is a never-before released celebration of his multifaceted visual inventions, his seminal role in the formative years of the celebrated Push Pin Studios (the legendary New York graphic studio founded by Milton Glaser, Seymour Chwast, Reynold Ruffins and Edward Sorel), his contribution to the rise of psychedelic art in the 1960s, and his broad and versatile artistic career. More than 500 colour illustrations spanning book jackets, editorial illustrations, posters, logos, award-winning children's books, paintings, ads and even billboards advertising the dominant pop icons of his age display not just the striking variety of mediums and styles he employed, but also the wide range of sensibilities he expressed as he expanded the boundaries of modern visual communications. His unique style can be found in hundreds of books (Random House, Simon & Schuster, Rizzoli, Longanesi, Guanda), movie posters (Fellinis Amarcord), magazines and record covers. His work has been exhibited in various locations including the Louvre in Paris.

Many ancient tales tell of a legendary city appearing and disappearing in various regions of the world and at different times in history. It is known as the Wandering City and has been sighted in the North Pole, in the Caribbean, in the middle of the Amazon forest, in the Gobi Desert, in Europe, far and wide. The spirit of the city is influenced by the architectonic styles of the different cultures it visits and by the light of the many different skies. Inside this colouring book, discover the wonders of the Wandering City. Immerse yourself in the cityscapes designed with white and black inky outlines and make them shine with the light of the different seasons and regions: cold-blue northern nuances, wet and watery oceanic tones, hot southern colours and more. Play with the whimsical perspectives, blend in the parks and squares, decorate the intricate features and discover hidden elements in the amazing metropolis that embodies all the architectural styles and landscapes of the world.

A little book redesigning the shape and the role of the chair, adapting it to different people, personalities and body features. Interior design, illustration, comics and sociology all in one book. "It all started, with a beige Moleskine in a bookshop in Rome. It's curious how many designers design chairs, so many chairs, but nobody seems to think about the characters who are going to use them. I liked the idea that by slightly modifying the legs, backrest, seat, I would be able to fit it to the person who'd sit on it."

Containing 20 detachable postcards of beautiful drawings from the The Wandering City. Immerse yourself in the white and black inky outlines of the Wandering City and fill them with colour.
