Presents the history of graphic design. This book highlights the manner in which graphic styles and artistic devices flow with times.

Here is a unique history of graphic design that charts over a century of creative brilliance, showcasing the most influential graphic designs from 1900 to the present. Organized chronologically to illustrate how one great concept can inspire the next, each year features a seminal piece of work by a graphic artist – some famous, some anonymous – the designs that originally inspired them and later works that show their influence. The evolution of ideas is brought alive through the encyclopaedic format and Steven Heller and Mirko Ilic’s revealing observations highlighting the manner in which graphic styles and artistic devices flow with times, thereby guaranteeing the book’s appeal to designers and students of design everywhere.

Steven Heller is co-chair of the MFA Design: Designer as Author programme at the School of Visual Arts, New York. He is the author of many books, including Stencil Type, Graphic, Typography Sketchbooks, New Ornamental Type and New Vintage Type, all published by Thames & Hudson. Mirko Ilic, the New York-based graphic designer, has won numerous awards for his handwritten design work.
