‘Typography & design culture’
The biannual magazine covering international graphic design and the culture surrounding it. This issue looks at the many digital tools relied upon by contemporary design studios.
From experimental open-source projects and custom scripts to indispensable utilities that shape creative digital and analogue workflows, the issue covers the big and the small of the many services that have become essential for the modern designer: graphic and type design, illustration, 3D, web, generative design, and creative coding. Some have become essential business tools, others offer playful critique of current design practice. Sections include: Typography, Illustration, Image, 3D, Font Management and Web.
As ever, the magazine is packed with visuals and references.
