"The Graphic Language of Neville Brody" was a tribute to one of the most influential graphic designers of the 1980s. Since then, computer graphics have entered the field of communications and Brody has transformed his typography to create a new "visual language". These new designs are the fruits of five years' experimentation. The Tokyo department store "Parco", the Dutch telecom company PTT, and the German cable TV channel "Premiere" have all commissioned Brody's work. The results appear here alongside his new typefaces: Blur, Pop, and FF Gothic, created for Fontshop International of Berlin, publishers of "FUSE", the inetractive magazine set up by Brody in 1990 as a new forum for experimental typography. Designed by Brody himself, with Wozencroft's text, this is the second instalment in the continuing Brody story.

Neville Brody is perhaps the best known graphic designer of his generation. This book, originally published in 1988, is a bible in the world of graphic design: the seminal expression of his early, ground-breaking typography. Brody first made his way into the public eye through his record cover designs and his involvement in the British independent music scene in the early 1980s. It was his work on magazines that firmly established his reputation as one of the world's leading graphic designers. In particular, his artistic contribution to The Face completely revolutionized the way in which designers and readers approached the medium. His unique designs soon became much-imitated models for magazines, advertising and consumer-oriented graphics. Brody also won much public acclaim through his highly innovative ideas on incorporating and combining typefaces into design and he later took this a step further and began designing his own typefaces, thus opening the way for the advent of digital type design. His contributions to the world of graphic design and digital typography are invaluable. Often referred to as a "star typographer," Brody has designed a number of well-known typefaces. With over 450 illustrations, this book provides a wide-ranging introduction to a crucial period in graphic design. The original expression of one of the pioneers for the digital age, The Graphic Language of Neville Brody is at once a historical document, a classic of graphic design, and a relevant tool for designers working today.
