Working with Style: Traditional and Modern Approaches to Layout and Typography

Self-contained sections both explain and demonstrate two theories of layout and typography style: the traditional, reflecting the aesthetics of the Renaissance; and the modern, based on a Swiss-German philosophy. A third section details the application of the concepts, with discussions of stylistic elements, techniques, and media. Includes an 800K Macintosh disk. Excellent background for professionals, students, and amateurs. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
