Working with Style


Book Description

This is a style guide for making decisions about layout and typography. Drawing on a variety of sources, old and new, it presents an overview and analysis of two fundamentally different typographic approaches - the traditional style that evolved over centuries from the Renaissance book, and the modern style that reflects the German-Swiss philosophy of this century. Each style is a reflection of a particular philosophy; each has its own structure and its own set of procedures, priorities and rules. Each section of the book is a model of the style it presents and includes numerous examples, old and new. The book comes with two supplemental materials - a 48-page workbook provides exercises, samples, and specifications for reproducing page samples, grids, and layouts; an 800K disk contains layout templates for traditional and modern formats.

Type & Layout


Book Description

The proliferation of desktop publishing has reawakened interest in the presentational aspects of printed communication; that is, in what writing looks like. When picking a fonts package, the image-conscious self-expresser would do well to consult Wheildon on the ins and outs of typography and graphic design; indeed, for those in advertising, his book will serve as a layout primer. In measured, detailed language, and drawing on nine years of research, Wheildon discusses page layout, typefaces, reader behavior, and more. Further, given subject matter that lends itself to insightful illustration, he accompanies the text with graphics that enhance and underscore his points at every turn. His writing seems a bit technical, even dry, at first, but detailed and crisp exposition combine with apt illustration to impart as much depth about the technical aspects of presenting printed communication as many readers may want.
