Designers and students and top creatives can find in this book fresh trends, inspiring content and new sources of inspiration in the world of typography.The World's Best Typography: The Yearbook of the Type Directors Club of NY (published for the first time 1980) is a highly specialized bible of inspiration for typography practitioners and graphic design students. Within its pages, top creatives as well as publishers and students can find role models, fresh trends, stimulating content and new sources of influence. Readers will be inspired by the intersection of craftsmanship and creation, of classical skills and trailblazing innovations. Here, trends are identified and set, as the around 750 illustrations, 203 awarding-winning designs from 41 countries and 37 new fonts presented clearly illustrate. From kinetic typography to motion design, from packaging to magazines, from corporate design to architectural communication: here the world's most creative people compete against each other and the winning works are breathtaking. Previously divided into two competitions, one each for Communications Design and Typeface Design, the programme is now a single competition (receiving more than 2,000 entries in this edition), which consists of three sections: Communication Design (137 winners), Lettering (28 winners) and Type Design (37 winners). There is an additional section, the Young Ones (46 winners), which is a competition for students and recent graduates only, across all the creative disciplines. This edition also includes a special index listing the principal typefaces used and the names of their designers. The Judges' Choices section features the winning entries that have been singled out as each judge's personal favourite; these pieces are accompanied not only by the judges' comments but also by designer statements. The Award for Typographic Excellence is the ticket to the best agencies in the world. The yearbook reflects typography trends, sets standards, is a collector's item, and distinguishes owners as visual leaders.…

About the Author
The Type Directors Club (TDC) celebrates and reinforces the undeniable power of typography. TDC is a global community united by the shared belief that type drives culture and culture drives type. Established in 1946 in New York, today the TDC curates intriguing typographic designs with the aim of: building community through public events and platforms; supporting the growth of students, early- and mid-career professionals; and recognizing excellence in type design across the world. In connection with TDC’s landmark yearly competition, TDC produces and publishes a Typography Annual (The World’s Best Typography), and coordinates international exhibitions of the award-winning work. Today, TDC operates as an autonomous organization under The One Club for Creativity.
