“These are a few examples of COVID-19 fronts that he believes have best conveyed the story over the past few weeks. There are some subtle breakthroughs too, including the March 27 chart that illustrates how unemployment numbers have risen so drastically, and the dramatic spike into the nameplate on April 8 (the first time that a graphic ever appeared above the dateline into the logo) showing where the largest concentration of cases can be found in the USA: New York City.”

Steven Heller and Louise Fili present a compilation of sixty years of stencil type and reveal why the primitive style still reigns. Low-cost and mass-producible, stencil type is the world’s most universally used style, seen on everything from bridges to bags, from street signs to packaging. And because they are an affordable means of mass communication, stencils are often employed by populist, rebellious and street-art movements. Hundreds of international examples, chosen from the late 19th century to the 20th, are brought together in a compact package that will provide endless inspiration for typographical ideas. Packed with examples from a broad range of locations and objects – construction hoardings, footlockers, wine barrels, shipping containers and so much more – Stencil Type represents a unique and highly curated choice based on decades of graphic-design experience and knowledge.  And the survey is global, drawing on design from America, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, the Netherlands, Great Britain, and Eastern Europe.  An introduction surveys the history and applications of stencil typography, and samples of stencil type ordered by their geographic origin.

More loveliness from Steven Heller and Louise Fili. I’m also a big fan of this format: 7”x10”, paper-over-boards, large enough for effective display, yet small enough to be comfortable.

Inspiration and Process in Design

Best-known for his corporate brand logos and art direction, Paul Rand (1914-1986) transformed commercial art from craft to profession, introduced European design standards to American commercial art, influenced the look of advertising and book design, and altered the ways in which major corporations including IBM, UPS, and Westinghouse did business. His adherence to a strict design form in his work for corporate clients was balanced by a playful side, captured in this spirited collection of literal (and figural) back-of-the-envelope sketches, doodles, notes, and imaginative sparks that later found their full form in his children's books, logos, and personal work. Steven Heller is the foremost expert on Paul Rand. He was an art director at the New York Times, where he now writes the Visuals column, and currently serves as co-chair of the MFA Design Department at the School of Visual Arts in New York. 04/01/20
