Max Bill: Typography - Advertising - Book Design
En allemand et anglais
Max Bill, Gerh Fleischmann, Hans Rudolf Bosshard, Christoph Bignens
Résumé
The book at hand offers a comprehensive view into an area of work from Max Bill that has so far received little attention: typography, advertising and book design. One discovers Max Bill as the tireless creator of highly individual types and commercial logos as well as a designer with a sense of visual humor - not exactly a common aspect of constructive design in this country.Bill pursued two opposing principles and accordingly left behind two lines in his work: a graphic one and a sculptural one. Taking Herbert Bayer's universal type as a point of departure, Bill developed two lettering schemes for the Neubühl housing development and the firm "wohnbedarf", which departed from all then-known forms. The reason for the stretched "o" in "wohnbedarf" may well have been grounded on how one perceives the text from the side; yet, behind this understanding lie formal ideas and the reductionist concept of the Bauhaus.
