A seductive collection of
alluring type designs
Paul Burgess/

To mum and dad, for
your support, every day,
in every way.
Foreword.
Paul Burgess.
r
reword.
Whilst researching for this book, I spent a
lot of time contacting different designers
from all walks of life: the new kids on the
block, the edgy agencies, right through to
the forefathers of the industry. One such
forefather, or maybe iconic grandfather
of design, kindly pointed out to me that
he had reached a point in his life where he
no longer wanted to contribute to books
such as this and had no interest in being
published alongside others whose work
may not appeal to him.
I hadn’t realized it at the time, but my view
is quite the opposite. I remember when
I first fell in love with design at the age
of sixteen, then studying it as a degree,
becoming fascinated by type, then to the
early days of my career, right though to
being a creative director, and even now,
running my own agency ... I’ve always
been excited about opening a new book
on any design subject, especially one on
typography.
For
You see, I spent those early days looking
through books I could only dream to
own, being inspired by the great work
inside, wishing that one day I might get
my work published too. And now, I’m glad
to say that (unlike our great forefather),
I’ve reached a point in my life where I’m
privileged enough to be able to give some
inspiration back through this book.
Whether you’re looking upwards with that
same youthful, wide-eyed optimism I’ve
always had, or you’re an old hand that
gets a kick from opening a crisp new
tome and seeing a new piece of great
typography, I hope this book does it’s job
of inspiring you.
But whatever happens, don’t grow up too
much and keep enjoying (and sharing)
typography.
Burge.
