Experimental Formats & Packaging


Book Description

New Mini Format! Experimental Formats & Packaging examines exciting design problems, such as how to make a book that does not look like a book, and how to create packaging that can be taken into new design dimensions while still fulfilling its essential, functional role. While both formats and packaging are notoriously difficult areas in which to be innovative and revolutionary, the authors have brought together examples that combine awareness of process and materials and creativity without compromising other methods of communication. Over 100 illustrated case studies reveal the ideas and philosophies behind each project, while an extensive directory of materials and processes, plus a range of basic box templates, provides an invaluable grounding to encourage a more experimental approach to design.Experimental Formats and Packaging combines the content of two highly successful titles in one great value book. **North American Rights Only**







Experimental Formats & Packaging


Book Description

Experimental Formats/Experimental Packaging combines two highly successful titles from the same series. Experimental Formats examines the shape and size of the designed page and reveals how decisions made at this initial stage of the design process have a huge impact on the finished design. Today with so much information being projected through screen in a conventional horizontal format, it is appealing to see shapes that are more unusual and more stimulating. Provides examples of how contemporary designers are pushing the boundaries in this area and explores exciting questions such as how to make a book that does not look like a book. Experimental Packaging features examples by designers who break all the conventional rules by creating unique pieces of structural art. New concepts are illustrated with templates and diagrams. There are ten templates included, adaptable for use with some of the unusual materials featured in the book.
