We are familiar with the aesthetics of modern art, architecture and product design, which is reflected in bold glass constructions as well as in minimalist paintings. The era was marked by enormous progress in technology and science, and this was reflected artistically. People wanted to design their environment themselves much more than before, breaking with past conventions. But modernity has also had a major impact on graphic design, which has been less noticed so far. These effects are dealt with in the book, for which the author Jens Müller has collected some 6,000 trademarks from 1940 to 1980. He examines how modernist ideas ultimately led to the corporate identity of today's organizations. The publication examines the brands of small media companies as well as those of retail giants, airlines and galleries, and the comprehensive overview covers a wide range of industries. The outline deals with the three design categories effect, geometry and typography, which are further subdivided.
