Slab Happy: Trilby Reviewed
by Paul Shaw
Although the sans serif was originally a bastard offspring of the slab serif, the latter has been copying the former for the past 80 years, and Trilby by David Jonathan Ross continues this trend. Just as Roger Excoffon and Evert Bloemsma reversed the weight distribution of grotesques to provide a fresh appearance, Ross has done the same for the Egyptian. In doing so, he has managed to avoid the pitfall of ending up with a French Clarendon (think Playbill or Ponderosa), the typeface that has been pigeon-holed as a symbol of the Old West: the typeface of gunslingers and gamblers, of ranchers and rustlers....

The Art of Seduction
by Peter Terzian
Call it the design world’s dirty little secret: Getting a client’s approval sometimes means relying on more than brilliantly conceived and flawlessly executed comps. And when faced with the objections of intractable, unimaginative, chronically contrarian, color-blind, or just plain grumpy clients, designers may resort to more nuanced methodologies—methods that are not taught in design school. Psychological methods. Machiavellian methods. Used-car-dealer methods. Manipulation. Intimidation. Seduction....

by J.C. Gabel
To commemorate the publisher’s 75th anniversary, Paul Buckley edited Penguin 75, a book that collects a cherished Penguin cover design for every year of business, including many Classic Deluxe Editions. “To me,” Buckley says, “often more interesting than the covers themselves are the stories, and the psychology that created all the variables that led to one cover over the 20 others proposed.”...

The Complex Bonds Between Design and Surrealism
by Rick Poynor
Surrealism has never received much attention in relation to graphic design. Where design histories touch on it, they rightly tend to see its adoption in promotion and advertising, in the 1930s, as a dilution. ... What's fascinating are cases where a designer or graphic artist connects in a more personal, direct, and continuous way to surrealist aims and image-making. A look at the the work of Elliott Earls, M/M Paris, Josef Vylet’al, and Jan Svankmajer....
