A glossary: know the styles you're playing with -- Playing with old new style -- Playing with visual voice -- Playing with attitude -- Playing with simplicity + complexity -- Playing with symbolic type.
"Should I have a personal style? What is style? Is it right to borrow styles?" These are the most commonly asked questions from design and illustration students ... This ... attempts to answer these questions through 50 exercises and case studies of how styles are used (sometimes abused) and how they can evolve into a distinct design personality, if only temporarily. The case studies address the distinctions between a personal and universal style, historical and contemporary style, one-of-a kind styles and how playing with lettering, type and typography can define style"--Publisher's description.
