Retro Graphics Cookbook
Retro Graphics Cookbook is a visual sourcebook of design details, motifs, ornaments, icons, logos, colour palettes, illustration styles and type and letterforms. It analyses a wide range of classic design 'looks' and breaks them down into the individual components from which they are built, explaining where they originated, what gives them their defining
characteristics and showing examples of how they were used at the time. The book offers a compendium of design 'modules' that any contemporary graphic designer can employ to accurately and authentically simulate retro styles.
Richly illustrated and carefully researched, Retro Graphics Cookbook is a visual encyclopedia of all the ingredients, recipes and methods that lie behind a feast of distinctive graphic design styles.
