Designing Books -- Now available in paper, this newly revised and expanded classic in book design argues for a non-dogmatic approach, one open to both traditional and modern, and symmetrical and asymmetrical, solutions. A survey of Jost Hochuli's own work as a book designer featuring pages from a career of over 30 years is shown, along with detailed comments by noted designer and critic Robin Kinross.
"Hochuli has achieved his standing without any fuss, programme or manifesto, by sheer talent and persistence. As a designer, his main concern is to work out individual solutions for individual books. This books is sure to help anyone who is seeking to develop a considered attitude towards the design and production of the book as a codex. The use of the individual's own understanding is at the core of Hochuli's practice and theory." –Fernand Baudin, Logos


Robin Kinross is Publisher of Hyphen Press. He lives in London.

Errazuriz’s work has already been shown at over 40 exhibits in citi...

De la tradición, porque cada nuevo libro es el fruto de todos aquellos que le han precedido, y de pensamiento porque sin una reflexión única e individualizada sobre la idea que se quiere transmitir, solo alcanzaremos a repetirnos. Jost Hochuli (St. GallenSuiza, 1933) partiendo de esta doble premisa,...
