TypoGraphic (UK, Issue 61, 2004
*

TypoGraphic is the journal of the International Society of Typographic Designers. Each issue is designed by a different designer/design agency for whom the task is both an opportunity to design a publication directed at ones' peers and a challenge in terms of devising a visual linking system for varied and often quite academic content.

This edition uses a simple page grid throughout. A clever series of devices referring to the content and holding to the grid is used to give the different articles a feeling of unity. Working clockwise through the examples from top left, the designs refer to the playing card designs used to list wanted Iraqi leaders by the US for a piece about design in the Nazi era; to a notebook for a personal reminiscence; to the geometry of book design for a piece about same; and to the borders used in early twentieth century advertising for a piece about that.
