Classic modern design never goes out of style: it is merely retired or subtly adapted to its given place and time. This collection reveals how a graphic language of simplicity and economy has impacted contemporary design.
Classic modern design never goes out of style: it is merely retired or subtly adapted to its given place and time. New Modernist Type is a collection that reveals how a graphic language of simplicity and economy has impacted contemporary design. Hundreds of modern examples by international designers are grouped into four thematic chapters: ‘Economy, Pure and Simple’; ‘Old Modern Redux’; ‘Modern Signs and Symbols’; and ‘New, Newer, Newest’. With an historical introduction putting today’s tendencies in context and a reference section that includes a list of designers’ websites, New Modernist Type is a rich sourcebook of ideas for the most functional of styles.

Steven Heller is co-chair of the MFA Design: Designer as Author programme at the School of Visual Arts, New York. He is the author of many books, including Stencil Type, Graphic, Typography Sketchbooks, New Ornamental Type and New Vintage Type, all published by Thames & Hudson. Gail Anderson is the creative director at Visual Arts Press at the School of Visual Arts and a partner at Anderson Newton Design. With Steven Heller, she is the author of New Ornamental Type and The Typographic Universe, both published by Thames & Hudson.
