Function, Restraint, and Subversion in Typography is a survey of minimalist and brutalist typography in contemporary graphic design. Going beyond the idea of "less is more" or a trend toward "a new elegance," this collection documents the work of twenty-four graphic design practices from around the world that engage in design schemes dominated by aggressively simple typography. Lavishly illustrated and with commentary by author J. Namdev Hardisty, Function, Restraint, and Subversion in Typography explores innovative posters, books, signage, and other forms of print design by today's most original designers.
