THE GRAPHIC EYE

Graphic designers have a unique way of looking at the world. Detailoriented and aesthetically demanding, they are denizens of popularculture, intrepid travellers, and avid collectors. As visual creatives,graphic designers are well informed about photography. They often carryaround a camera, but rarely share the same concerns as professionalphotographers. As a result, the photographs they produce are distinctlyunconventional and often appear in their design work—in fact, aglance at a designer's personal photography will offer vital clues intotheir working methods and obsessions. Selected from the personalportfolios of the world's most innovative and creative graphic designers,The Graphic Eye includes every type of photographic image, from macrodetails and funny moments, to found type, street scenes, rare objects, andmonumental vistas. The book also includes personal portraits, quirkyfashions, and organic and manmade colours, textures, and environments.Featuring work from big name international designers such as Ed Fella,Marian Bantjes, Bryony Gomez-Palacio, Deanne Cheuk, Rodrigo Corral, JuliaHoffman, Colin Metcalf, Debbie Millman, Paul Sahre, Jakob Trollbäck, RickValicenti, and Henry Sene Yee, this is a unique and inspirationalreference library of innovative imagery.
