An inspiring visual survey of the resurgence of minimalism in latest graphic design

Minimalism has informed probably the most greatest graphic design in the history of the art form. It gave us the Helvetica font and decluttered internet design, and it allowed graphic designers to center of attention with renewed diligence on the relationship between form and serve as. Today’s resurgence in minimalist graphic design―as creators move away from the ornate, decorative patterns that have saturated our visual culture for the past decade―calls for a closer take a look at the movement in its new, latest context.

Min showcases around 150 outstanding minimalist designers working across a variety of formats and media―from independent magazines and album cover designs to corporate identity and branding. Three sections―“Reduction,” “Geometry,” and “Production”―define key approaches to minimalism in its visual forms. Every section presents a range of latest works, all produced up to now three years. These are accompanied by exclusive interviews with leading practitioners and proponents of minimalist design (Jessica Svendsen, Made Thought, Eric Hu, and others) that offer an in-depth take a look at their creative processes. In any case, essays tracing the evolution of minimalism in graphic design allow for a useful comparison of the first wave of minimalism in the 1960s to its renascent form today. 500 color illustrations
