New Book Design

Books about visual culture are generally conceived to appeal to the most discerning and design-literate consumer. Consequently these are usually the most painstakingly produced books on the market, employing unusual print techniques and materials and exploring unconventional formats. New Book Design is a showcase of the most interesting and accomplished designs of the last ten years. Highly illustrated and featuring a series of interviews with influential designers and publishers, it examines a wide variety of books, from paperback novels to architectural monographs, analysing the most distinctive elements of each volume’s design.
