Design throwbacks are frequently expressed in the world of fashion, but in the past few years retro aesthetics have taken hold of graphic design.

The Modernist documents this fascinating design aesthetic that seamlessly fuses classical type elements from the 1950s, geometric patterns and graphic elements of the 1960s and 1970s, and the vector graphics and computer-aided montage of the 1990s. We love this book for its exciting collection of graphic design and fine art.
