N2  - The distinctive aesthetic of the mid-century design captured the post-war zeitgeist of energy and progress, and remains hugely popular today. Theo Inglis takes an in-depth look at the innovative graphics of the period, writing about the work of artists and designers from all over the world. From book covers, record covers and posters to advertising, typography and illustration, the designs feature eye-popping colour palettes, experimental type and prints that buzz with kinetic energy. The book features artworks from a wide selection of international designers and illustrators whose work continues to inspire and influence today, including Charles and Ray Eames, Paul Rand, Herbert Bayer, Dick Bruna, Alvin Lustig, Elaine Lustig Cohen, Leo Lionni, Alexey Brodovitch, Abram Games, Saul Bass, Sister Corita Kent, Jim Flora, Herb Lubalin, and Miroslav Sasek
