Surprise Me

Editorial design is one of the most complex and most inspiring tasks in graphic design. Everything learned from editorial design can be applied to other areas of graphic design. Most books about editorial design pieces of work. Surprise Me is different. Horst Moser does not just present international editorial design from his huge collection. Instead, he chooses examples of all kinds of tasks editorial designers may be confronted with, picks the most convincing, most extravagant and most successful examples and then comments on them. The diversity of possible results, taking into account design tasks covering all areas from cover to cover, is...

demonstrated and lucidly analysed. The exeptional quality of the examples will most probably stimulate creative processes on the higest level. Moser consciously offers fancy extremes next to examples suitable for the mass market. This method almost inevitably initiates thinking processes for design solutions addressed to all kinds of target groups. And it makes Surprise Me a fount of wisdom, which will never dry.
