Teaching Graphic Design History is a collection of essays, syllabi, and guides edited by Steven Heller that examines the key influences and practice of design through the course of history. Published by Allwoth as part of their ongoing series with The School of Visual Arts, the book serves as a resource putting into practice the value of teaching design history through a broad range of methodologies and concepts through contributions from Warren Lerher, Louise Sandhaus, Keith Godard, and Ellen Lupton to name a few.
The book is set in a combination of Hoefler & Co’s bold, and compact Tungsten, and sharp editorial workhorse, Mercury for the body and tabular elements. A bright spot Pantone orange (what else) punctuates the design throughout.
