Bob Gill
Published by:
Rockport Publishers Inc.
Coming up with fresh ideas for logo jobs can be a very demanding process. This book offers designers many new ways to approach, or think about, each individual job, and Gill's message is that for every logo job, there are many solutions. In the back of the book, he proves this by designing 31 different logos for the same company, providing a quick-hit 'idea book on how to conceptualise a logo idea'. These pages illustrate very simple ways to think about a logo, providing designers with the inspiration and understanding that a business or person can be successfully represented in a variety of ways. A unique approach in its succinctness, Gill has boiled down the most essential creative tactics to single sentences so that designers can flip through this book and walk away with many new ideas for design solutions in just minutes.

The Best of One- and Two-color Graphics

NZ$ 55.00 each
Paperback
Author:
Chen Design Associates
Published by:
Rockport Publishers Inc.
Graphic design using limited or single colours not only offers a less expensive alternative to costly four and five colour printing, but also offers a range of effects from sombre and elegant to edgy and bold. One-colour and two-colour printing, although more common than four-colour printing, often carries with it a stigma of looking cheap compared to four-colour pieces. This book puts that myth to rest by showing how truly dynamic effects can be achieved with simple, inexpensive one- and two-colour design and printing. Included is a 'colour finder' section designed to show readers a variety of colour combinations for various projects, such as logos, packaging, book jackets and posters. Each featured project is shown in thumbnail size in 15 to 20 different combinations. This easy to follow and inspirational book confirms that beauty is found in simplicity, and is highly recommended for anyone with an interest in graphic design.
