AGI New Members 2007–2017

The nearly 700-page book includes the work of more than 200 new members accepted by the Alliance Graphique Internationale (AGI) between 2007 and 2017. Each designer is presented on three pages with profile, selected works and a short interview covering current design-related issues, the developments and challenges in graphic design and the role and future of print media. Upholding the motto “Enjoy Design!”, this book is the third of a series to be designed by renowned graphic designer Jianping He. The distinctive black-and-white cover already re­veals an outstanding 13,880 paper strips into which the upper fifth of all book pages have been cut into. Upon opening the book, these strips make the pages fan out manifoldly – to not only create a highly playful and lively element, but also demonstrate new possibilities in book design. When browsing through the pages, something new happens constantly, turning the book into a worthy introduction of the new members.
