Produktbeschreibung
Graphic designers love music. This is attested not least by the tremendous enthusiasm that readers of the typography magazine Slanted bring to its "Typo Lyrics" column, in which designers interpret music in entirely new ways with the help of fonts. For this publication of the same name, celebrated graphic designers like Fons Hickmann as well as talented young designers from all over the world have taken song lyrics and used them as the inspiration for innovative font designs. The result is a collection of fascinating visuals â?? "typographic images" that present contemporary fonts a little bit differently. The extraordinary interplay of type design and music brings the fonts to life and practically sets them dancing. In contrast to classical pattern books and font fans, this volume provides a special, more emotional experience of typography and illustrates the great expressive potential of typefaces. On analogy with the traditional classification of fonts, the book is organized into eleven chapters, each of which treats a particular font family and song lyrics from a particular musical style.
Grafikdesigner lieben Musik. Das zeigt nicht zuletzt die große Begeisterung der Leser des Typografie-Magazins "Slanted" für die Rubrik "Typo Lyrics", in der Gestalter Musik mithilfe von Schrift ganz neu interpretieren. Für die gleichnamige Publikation haben sich renommierte Grafikdesigner wie Fons Hickmann sowie junge Talente aus der ganzen Welt von Songtexten zu innovativen Font-Designs inspirieren lassen. Entstanden ist eine Sammlung faszinierender Visuals - "Schriftbilder", die zeitgenössische Fonts auf eine etwas andere Weise präsentieren. Das außergewöhnliche Zusammenspiel von Schriftgestaltung und Musik macht die Fonts lebendig und bringt sie regelrecht zum Tanzen. Im Gegensatz zu klassischen Musterbüchern oder Schriftenfächern wird so ein besonderer, emotionaler Zugang zur Typografie geschaffen, der das große Ausdruckspotenzial von Schriften deutlich macht.
Analog zur traditionellen Schriftklassifikation gliedert sich das Buch in elf Kapitel, die sich jeweils mit einer Schriftfamilie und Songtexten einer bestimmten Musikrichtung auseinandersetzen.
