Publisher's Synopsis

Illustrating his ideas with examples of his own graphic designs, as well as an eclectic collection of works, Rand discusses such topics as: the relation between art and business; the presentation of design ideas and sketches to prospective clients; the debate over typographic style; and the aesthetics of combinatorial geometry as applied to the grid. His book should be appropriate for anyone interested in the practice or theory of graphic design.
