Typography today exists in conflict with classical font design and contemporary influences such as analogue distortion, screen applications, street culture, deconstruction, hand lettering and illustrative letter forms. Type One not only presents an overview of the diversity in current typography, but also reveals where conventions have become established and where valid new approaches exist. In addition to a rich selection of typefaces and their applications, the book features articles by and interviews with international experts such as Jean François Rappot, House Industries’ Andy Cruz and Ken Barber, Norm and Professor Tanja Diezmann.
