The New Handmade Graphics: Beyond Digital Design

by Hannah Ford, Anne Odling-Smee

As graphic design becomes increasingly digitized, more designers and clients are attracted to work that incorporates an element of the handmade, this title explores the fascination designers have with the handmade, an increasingly popular area of design. The creative possibilities of typography, image-making, printing and binding are explored and the volume features some rarely-seen examples of stunning work from around the world, hand-bound artists' books; brochures using handmade paper; and hand-folded and boxed magazines. It also investigates the practical details of available technologies and working with limited budgets for small output.
