Borrowed Design Use and Abuse of Historial Form

By Steven Heller, Julie Lasky

Format:Hardcover

This book addresses the issues of inspiration, influence and plagiarism in today's graphic design practice. Discussing concepts such as nostalgia, cliche, parody, and revival, the authors help designers determine whether they are borrowing or stealing and ultimately aid them in establishing a legitimate and meaningful relationship with the past. Case studies with accompanying illustrations highlight both good and bad examples of borrowed design.
