Please Make This Look Nice is a behind-the-scenes look at the
graphic design process of more than fifty graphic designers,
typographers, and studios from around the world. Hundreds of
never-before-seen images mined from their archives are woven
together with first-hand observations, resulting in a rich and
diverse perspective on the nature of making. A must-have for
students, devotees, and practicing designers, it expands the most
basic understanding of graphic design-how it gets made and its
effect on the modern world. Celebrated graphic design contributors
including Maira Kalman, Milton Glaser, Michael Bierut, Experimental
Jetset, Carin Goldberg, Ivan Chermayeff and Tom Geismar, Paul
Sahre, and Stefan Sagmeister, as well as emerging design stars
share their far-ranging insights and personal means of finding
inspiration. Kalman advises on the importance of journals and
walking; Sagmeister meditates on his desire to find, define, and
create beauty in a world defined by efficiency; Bierut speaks to
the existence of many possible solutions to a single design problem
as well as how his own process developed in response to his mentor
Massimo Vignelli; and Ed Fella encourages designers to experiment,
innovate, and discover a personal methodology unique to their own
criteria, interests, and values. Please Make This Look Nice is sure
to appeal to type and graphic design professionals, students, and
design fans alike.
