This book features the first American retrospective look at the Italian Swiss graphic designer and typographer Bruno Monguzzi, who has worked internationally since the 1960s. In addition to his award winning typographic design he designed nine pavillions for Expo '67 in Montreal. Monguzzi has also lectured extensively and is a member of the prestigious Alliance Graphique Internationale. Essayist Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo -- whose own design work has been recognized by the American Institute of Graphic Arts, the American Center for Design, ID Magazine, Communication Arts Magazine, and the American Association of Museums -- describes in detail Monguzzi's contributions to European design. The book also features images, interviews, biographical information, and appreciations by fellow designers, including Gone Federico, Rudolph deHarak, April Greiman, Ikko Tanaka, and Antonio Boggeri.
