I designed this book cover for the project "Recovering The Classics". (recoveringtheclassics.com/8040)
Recovering The Classics is a crowdsourced collection of original covers for 50 of the greatest books in the public domain. All books are available for sale as both digital and softcover editions to support the artists involved. Recovering The Classics is a project of the Creative Action Network, a marketplace for connecting artists with the causes they care about, and DailyLit, a platform for delivering great fiction in short installments.Check out their other campaigns at: thecreativeactionnetwork.com/campaigns
Use of typography, negative spaces, minimalism and your imagination. Those were my keys to design the below cover. Black and white used for the absolute way that the detective's mind worked. The big O, the magnify glass and the letters around, the clues he has to look for. Now, here, we are called to look more careful at the clues in his 12 stories (12 letters) that this book contains, and find the man who is behind them, maybe his figure hides in the dark... and ... our magnify glass spotted his pipe... Hmmm... Is this Sherlock Holmes? :-)

O libro de Manuel Rico Verea e Antón Santamarina ten a intención de recopilar e recuperar algunhas das cancións populares que forman parte do noso patrimonio musical.
Organizado por xéneros e temáticas, sempre foi vontade dos autores que o cancioneiro tivese as características dun libro de peto —manexable, transportable e económico— que permitise facer uso del en romerías, seráns, foliadas, festas familiares, etc.
Esta vontade condicionou as decisións de deseño e edición do libro. A tripa estrutúrase por cadernos de 16 páxinas rodeados de dípticos de cor, organizando o contido por xéneros ou temáticas musicais. Cun formato para gardar en calquera peto —105x160 mm— as esquinas da publicación redondéanse para facilitar o transporte e evitar o seu deterioro.
Amáis do pequeno formato, a encadernación co lombo solto permite abrir facilmente o libro e suxeitalo cunha man —sobre todo se se está a cantar mentres se le unha letra ou melodía.
Coa convicción de que os elementos gráficos e visuais do libro deben comunicaran aspectos parellos ao contido, neste caso da cultura popular galega, traballamos con recortes fotográficos dos panos tradicionais —panos rameados— que nos serviron para ilustrar as cubertas e os diferentes capítulos do libro. Recuncando na mesma idea os papeis nos que se imprimen os motivos florais dos panos son papeis gofrados cunha textura que lembra á das telas.
As cubertas cheas de flores queren celebrar a primavera, os maios e o día das letras galegas, día de publicación deste cancioneiro de peto: Eu non canto por cantar.

The Week-End Book was a popular compendium of advice as to how to spend a weekend and contained a wide range of information, pastimes and stories. First published in the 1920s by the Nonsuch Press and edited by the redoubtable Francis Meynell along with Vera Mendel it went through various guises and editions, with one being issued quite recently. This 1954 edition uses the 1920s cover design by MacDonald Gill, better known as Max, the brother of the more well-known Eric Gill (he of the typeface Gill Sans). Max was an accomplished artist and designer especially of decorative maps, and this cover is very typical of his style. Max had died in 1947 and so this version was issued posthumously.

O concurso arquia/próxima, organizado pola Fundación Caja de Arquitectos, ten como finalidade dar apoio e difusión aos arquitectos do estado nos primeiros dez anos de exercicio profesional.
O encargo requería dar identidade gráfica ao concurso e ao foro arquia/próxima do ano 2012, titulado “Nuevos Formatos”. Os soportes que era preciso deseñar eran: un cartel, un políptico e un catálogo físico e dixital (web) coas obras recoñecidas.
Desde o inicio do proxecto consideramos a relación entre os soportes en base a unha idea e un concepto máis que mediante a aplicación constante dunha gráfica determinada. Coas cores corporativas e co formato do catálogo en papel xa determinados, comezamos a indagar sobre a finalidade do concurso: a visibilidade e promoción dos estudios de arquitectos novos. Con ese obxectivo en mente, e tendo sempre presente o título de 'Nuevos Formatos', pensamos nos fanzines, publicacións autoeditadas moi comúns no mundo da arquitectura desde os anos 60, como base da identidade do concurso, relacionando, a través dese formato, os seus distintos soportes.
Por outra banda, coa intención de comunicar o desgaste que leva consigo o concepto de 'Nuevo' no mundo da arquitectura e do deseño, deseñamos a identidade visual en contradición co título 'Nuevos Formatos', elaborando impresións 'analóxicas' mediante técnicas case en desuso: tipografías de madeira, diferentes plantillas, máquinas de escribir… (vimeo.com/49371560) posteriormente dixitalizadas, continuando coa lóxica da autoedición e do feito por un mesmo (DIY) do fanzine
Fanzines.
Maquetouse un fanzine para cada proxecto seleccionado no concurso (120 fanzines, 1920 páxs.). Os fanzines poden ser descargados dende a páxina do concurso como un arquivo PDF en formato A4 para despois ser impresos nunha impresora doméstica, dobrados e montados cun formato final de A5. Cada usuario pode descargar e construir os fanzines dos proxectos que lle resulten máis interesantes, creando unha colección persoal arquia/próxima 2012. Unhas instruccións de montaxe acompañan a cada pdf descargable.
Carteis e Polípticos.
Para o deseño do material de promoción e difusión do foro e do concurso deseñamos un cartel en formato A0, que dobrado, cortado e grampado construía un políptico/fanzine en formato A5. Imprimíronse tres versións diferentes de cartel segundo o método de impresión da tipografía: stencil (pochoir), plantillas de rotulación e tipografías de madeira.
Catálogo.
Seguindo a lóxica de relación entre os diferentes soportes, quixemos que o catálogo reflexase tamén a idea do fanzine. Dentro do formato xa determinado das publicacións da Fundación Caja de Arquitectos, introducimos un encarte en formato A5 para cada proxecto. En cada encarte, un código QR enlaza coa páxina do catálogo dixital (web) de arquia/próxima onde se pode consultar e ampliar a información do proxecto que aparece no propio libro, ademais de ter a posibilidade de descargar o seu fanzine específico.
Con esta estratexia, contando coas limitacións de espazo do libro e co volume de información dispoñible, o catálogo físico funciona máis como unha presentación de todos os proxectos seleccionados que despois é ampliada no catálogo dixital, onde a documentación de cada proxecto pode ser máis exhaustiva e onde é posible, ademais, incorporar outro tipo de información (videos, mapas, etc.).
Catálogo dixital.
O catálogo dixital (web) deseñouse como un respositorio de todas as obras seleccionadas (120) para que fose posible acceder á diferente información de cada proxecto (imaxes, planos, videos, mapas,…) con facilidade e de maneira áxil. Conscientemente se reduciron os elementos de interación co usuario para facer máis inmediata a navegación. A programación da web se elaborou con criterios de deseño adaptable aos diferentes dispositivos de visualización.
Trofeo.
Para recoñecer as obras premiadas, en vez de deseñar e elaborar un trofeo máis ou menos convencional, e seguindo coa lóxica de adaptabilidade de formatos entre os diferentes soportes de comunicación do premio, deseñamos unha publicación que reunía os 24 fanzines das obras candidatas. Aos autores de cada obra candidata aos premios se lle outorgou unha publicación personalizada, na que o seu fanzine foi impreso nun papel de cor amarela. O libro/trofeo funcionaba ao mesmo tempo como diploma.

Curator’s introduction, showing at left a detail of one of Ms. Watt’s blanket towers, which range from eight to thirty feet in height. Here you can see the type resting on two baselines: one near the bottom of the page, reserved for the main narrative and one about a third from the top, for captions and other didactic content. Headlines hang below the top baseline to draw the two areas together and trigger the figure/ground relationship between the type area and the pale background tint, which is both an organizational tool and a nod to the stripe proportions on trade blankets.
Ilonka Karasz (1896-1981) was the foremost woman modernist designer in the United States in the first half of the twentieth century. She designed wallpaper, wrapping paper, textiles, furniture, interiors, nurseries, book jackets, and magazine covers, among other things.
New York, Not So Little and Not So Old was one of two books by Sarah M. Lockwood designed by Karasz in 1926. (The other was Antiques). Of particular note are Karasz's maps, a skill she leant to many books. For more information and other examples of Karasz's work as a cartographer, see my blog post:

Anthropomorphic imagery is well established in western society. Examples can be found in everything from arts and literature to religion and pop culture. The school children’s Valentines of the 1940s and 1950s represented the spirit of anthropomorphism in a visually delightful and simplistic manner. Their appeal stemmed from bold colors, well defined human- like objects and the double entendre, a figure of speech in which a phrase or word may be understood in one of two ways. For example, a Valentine with the image of a canoe offers double meanings for “canoe” (can you), “oar” (or) and the suggestion to “paddle around.” We created realistic mockups of these two-dimensional valentines to showcase these charming and sweet cards for the author, Robert Rightmire.
We worked with blogger Haeley Simbalvo to create “Handcrafted Wreaths”, is a truly fun collection of her favorite - and easy to make wreaths. The book is designed with simple to follow instructions for creating wreaths for each season of the year.
Finished copies of Will Steacy's collection of essays, "The Photographs Not Taken" bound with a three hole pamphlet stitch using kitchen twine.
Regarded as one of the very finest books from a fine press, and set in their own Golden Cockerel type designed by Eric Gill in 1929, it is interesting that what I have read about this book is the feeling that the engravings and the lettering are not a 'prefect marriage'. Well, I wouldn't mind a copy! Mary Groom (1903 - 1958) was a fine wood engraver as can be seen here in this edition of Milton's Paradise Lost.
