Book Description
"Summer 2009 seemed more colorful than usual, thanks to the boldly innovative Visionaire issue, Solar. Inside a sleek all-white case resided an all-white board-bound book featuring an all-white embroidered bird by Roe Ethridge. The book featured artworks by Alex Katz, Peter Lindbergh, Ryan McGinley, and David Sims--each printed using breakthrough color-changing inks. When viewed indoors or under artificial light, the issue, sponsored by Calvin Klein Collection, was completely stark in its black & whiteness. When exposed to direct sunlight, however, the artworks reacted to UV rays and bloomed into full color--and inspired actual items of clothing, too. Calvin Klein Collection’s Francisco Costa and Italo Zucchelli produced women’s and men’s pieces, respectively, made of fabric dipped in the same color-changing inks. Even Yoko Ono was impressed. “I love experiments on the paper itself in publications,” Ono says, looking back. “Visionaire is the only magazine I know of to make such far-out statements. Every issue is so daring and enjoyable. We all wait for the next one to come out. Bravo, Visionaire!""--Publisher's description.

Book Description
This innovative work provides a state-of-the-art overview of current thinking about the development of brand strategy. Unlike other books on branding, it approaches successful brand strategy from both the producer and consumer perspectives. "The Science and Art of Branding" makes clear distinctions among the producer's intentions, external brand realities, and consumer's brand perceptions - and explains how to fit them all together to build successful brands. Co-author Sandra Moriarty is also the author of the leading Principles of Advertising textbook, and she and Giep Franzen have filled this volume with practical learning tools for scholars and students of marketing and marketing communications, as well as actual brand managers. The book explains theoretical concepts and illustrates them with real-life examples that include case studies and findings from large-scale market research. Every chapter opens with a mini-case history, and boxed inserts featuring quotes from experts appear throughout the book. "The Science and Art of Branding" also goes much more deeply than other works into the core concept of brand equity, employing new measurement systems only developed over the last few years.
