![]() Design, graphic art & illustration specialists Victionary are to release two brand new tomes, essential for every budding graphic design enthusiast. Full of humour, playful optical effects, die cuts, 3D illusions and other inventive and interactive elements, this new collection of homeware, apparel, and lifestyle product advertisements clearly demonstrates the challenges being met, and advancements being made, by graphic artists working today. Evidencing how an unexpected twist in format, material or concept can entirely refresh and reinvigorate a standard concept, Design • Play focuses on tricky, sometimes risky approaches to advertising that have invariably proved highly successful. Also released from Victionary this month is Colour Mania, a comprehensive catalogue of creations by some of the most talented designers working today, all of whom work predominantly in one colour. Arranged in sections relating to each particular colour - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black and white - Colour Mania is a vivid visual treat offering an unprecedented, in-depth understanding of individual colours and their applications in all sectors of the design world. With a cover that comes in nine different colours, each pertaining to one of the colours featured within the book, this book is a beautiful visual reference that won’t fail to inspire.
