Description
The Designers Republicâ,¢ is the design group that changed design. But thereâ?Ts never been a book that tells its story - until now. Led by founder and born rebel, Ian Anderson, The Designers Republicâ,¢ has shaped graphic communication over the past thirty years through rule-defying music work, provocative self-initiated projects and a fierce commitment to conceptual thinking over style. Now, for the first time in book form, Anderson explores the studioâ?Ts output, and its influence on a generation of graphic designers. AZTDRâ,¢ spans over three decades of work â?" from the studioâ?Ts earliest designs for the FON label in the mid-1980s and sleeves for Age of Chance, Chakk and Cabaret Voltaire, right up to its recent projects for The Cinematic Orchestra, Led Bib and the Gulbenkian Foundation. Alongside classic self-initiated TDRâ,¢ projects, the 512-page book features an A to Z of everything from campaigns for Evolution Print, Coca-Cola and Nike, through to the studioâ?Ts celebrated designs for video games such as Wipeout and Formula Fusion. TDRâ,¢â?Ts special relationship with print is explored through its celebrated contributions to IDEA and Emigre magazines and its 3D>2D book, alongside its work for Manchester School of Art, Gatecrasher, NY Sushi and the studioâ?Ts array of music clients. Here, TDRâ,¢â?Ts work with Autechre is examined via ten key releases, while the studioâ?Ts involvement with Pop Will Eat Itself focuses on some twenty-eight different singles and albums. There are also expansive sections devoted to TDRâ,¢â?Ts designs for Aphex Twin, Moloko, Sun Electric and The Orb, alongside sleeve designs for R&S Records, New Atlantis, a range of Berlin-based labels and, of course, Warp Records.
