Max Bill and the modernization of typography

December 7th, 2009 by admin

If you love typography like I do, you will love this book about Max Bill!

Max bill considered himself primarily an architect, yet he was also an inventive and tireless creator of type fonts and commercial logos, as well as being a designer with wonderful sense of visual humor. this rich monograph gives max bill fans an extensive and inspiring look at works for which he has received little attention, in the fields of typography, advertising and book design. Today, many people consider Max to be one of the major players of Graphic Design as we know it today.
