This book presents and concludes the different approaches of rough expression. In it we could find out why and how artists created childlike lines and colors, torn and rubbed the paper, or collected trash from streets.

This book digs into chaotic art heritage in human history, and features the most exciting graphic designs distinguished with chaotic styles, which have been broken down into four different approaches: distortion, redundancy, diversity, and randomness. As a tribute to the chaotic art refined by the courageous predecessors, as well as an applause to the chaotic visuals nourished by our contemporary designers, it serves as a bridge between artistic ideals and graphic communication, between puzzled readers and expressive designers.

The exquisite creations embody our best artistic endeavors, and offer a glimpse of the greatness of the civilizations that produced them. Their sheer beauty and charm are enough for us to marvel at, let alone the large sum of resources, efforts and time poured into making them. In this book, we hope to follow our predecessors' footprints in the endless pursuit of exquisite beauty, and to explore the possibilities of how this style might blaze new trails in today's graphic design world.

It includes material collected by professors and other staff at the ETH, images created and collected by institutes and chairs within the ETH, but also the entire archives of companies or other institutions, such as Switzerland's legendary former national airline Swissair (1931 - 2001), or private collections bequeathed to ETH-Bibliothek.

Unique in size, scope and period covered, it comprises 54,000 postcards from 1889 - 1980. It documents comprehensively what can be called the Golden Age of picture postcards before World War I, with its enormous diversity of motifs, radical changes of style in design and when postcards had their heyday as a communication medium. The collection's main focus is on images of individual sites, places and landscapes in 140 countries. Around 15,000 motifs are from Switzerland. The period best represented in the collection is from 1893 - 1930. The World in Pocket-size Format is a documentation of this magnificent collection.
