Synopsis
Featuring examples from all over the world, the authors discuss the function and execution of signage, focusing on the intentional rather than on the accidental or temporary. Visually led, the book contains some 700 colour images, thematically grouped, and described in extended captions, and the best current examples appear alongside historical material.
