Description
Extra Bold is a comprehensive guide for graphic designers, combining theory, history, and practical information to empower readers and encourage them to amplify diverse voices. This inclusive resource explores power structures in the workplace and how to navigate them, featuring interviews with designers from different stages of their careers and biographical sketches of individuals marginalized by sexism, racism, and ableism.
Written collaboratively by a diverse team of designers, including Ellen Lupton, and featuring original illustrations by Jennifer Tobias, Extra Bold offers a new take on the design canon, rethinking design principles and practices through feminist, anti-racist, and inclusive theories. The book is packed with new voices, including interviews, essays, typefaces, and projects from dozens of contributors with varying backgrounds and perspectives.
