About this product

The Designer Says is a compendium of quotations from more than one hundred of history's leading practitioners. Paired on page spreads like guests at a dinner party, a designer from the nineteenth century might sit next to one working today or two contemporary designers may strike up a conversation. This portable collection makes the perfect gift for designers, students, and anyone curious about the ideas and personalities that have shaped the art of visual communication.

"Handsomely bound and stylishly typeset The Designer Says is packed to the rafters with the wit and wisdom of luminaries from design disciplines.... Just buy yourself a copy -- or surprise the creative you treasure most." - Ace Jet 170, "Each spread pits two designers against each other on a given theme, creating a mock dialogue in the process. As they debate the utility of the grid system, the problem with money and the importance of authenticity, their wisdom comes across in gorgeous type and succinct humor. Published by Princeton Architectural Press and compiled by Sara Bader of Quotenik, the pocket companion makes for an inspirational reference with words from the likes of Saul Bass, Stephen Doyle, Milton Glaser, Chip Kidd and Paula Scher." - Cool Hunting, "Each spread pits two designers against each other on a given theme, creating a mock dialogue in the process.
