And there are features about the new wave of illustrative typography and lettering: ‘Make each letter speak out loud’ (see work by Jessica Hische, above) and calligraphers Carl Kurtz and Susan Skarsgård (below).
The Uncoated section is packed with reviews and opinions, and in ‘End of default’, Eye art director Simon Esterson and designer Jay Prynne look at the changes taking place in type and typography for the Web. Eye Education section looks at motion typography from Gail Anderson’s class at the SVA in New York (below).
Eye, the international review of graphic design, is a quarterly journal you can read like a magazine and collect like a book. It’s available from all good design bookshops and at the online Eye shop, where you can order subscriptions, single issues and classic collections of themed back issues.
