Typography

Since the 1970s, Wolfgang Weingart has exerted a decisive influence on the international development of typography. He instilled creativity and a desire for experimentation into the ossified Swiss typographical industry and reflected this renewal in his own work. Countless designers have been inspired by Weingart's teaching at the Basle School of Design and by his lectures. In Typography, Weingart gives an unusual and frank narrative of his early life and development as a designer. This long-awaited reprint of Weingart's opus magnum gives a comprehensive survey of 40 years of his work.
