The Graphic Language of Neville Brody 3

Description

A follow-up to two highly successful monographs on the work of one of the most important designers of his generation, showcasing projects completed since the mid-1990s.

Neville Brody defined the look of the 1980s music scene as art director of The Face. Since then, Brody consistently proved that he is one of most innovative and shape-shifting graphic designers of the era. While his second monograph was published in 1994, over the last almost three decades Brody has produced a new body of editorial, typographic, information, and interface design of unparalleled boldness and sophistication for global clients that include Samsung, Shiseido, Coca-Cola, the UK’s Channel 4, and Dom Perignon.

The Graphic Language of Neville Brody 3 brings this work together in thematic sections that address the key fields of his vibrant design projects, including typographic experimentation, information graphics, cultural subversion, and design systems. Richly illustrated, each project is explored in detail, revealing the work that defined Brody’s recent career across six chapters, from major brands to magazine editorials and features, showing how his design language has evolved since the 1990s.

Creating a new generation of fans, this volume shares Brody’s design genius at a time when the originality of work from the 1980s and 1990s across many creative disciplines is finding a new audience. This inspirational volume is essential reading for anyone interested in the evolution of graphic design over the past three decades.
