Graphic Design. 1890–Today
A compact visual history of graphic design, from Art Nouveau posters to modern identity systems, advertising, packaging, typography and screen-led communication.
Written by designer and historian Jens Müller, Graphic Design. 1890–Today traces more than a century of visual culture through hundreds of key examples, arranged by decade. It moves from the decorative force of the 1890s through modernist grids, postwar advertising, corporate identity, punk energy, digital design and the image-saturated language of the present day.
Inside are landmark works, influential publications, design movements and short profiles of major figures including Massimo Vignelli, Otl Aicher, Paula Scher, Milton Glaser, Louise Fili and Stefan Sagmeister.
Part primer, part reference book, this is a sharp, accessible introduction to the visual systems that shape how we read, buy, travel, protest, identify and remember. A strong shelf piece for graphic designers, students, art directors, zine makers and anyone interested in how images and type became one of the loudest languages of modern life.
