Description

This autobiographical monograph presents a retrospective of the 40-year innovative graphic design practice of husband-and-wife team, Nancy Skolos and Thomas Wedell.

The two have seamlessly merged the boundaries between graphic design, photography and typography, fusing two-and three-dimensional space through overlapping type and image.

Long-time influential designers and educators, and 2017 AIGA medalists, Skolos-Wedell's work has been widely exhibited and published in the US and internationally.

The book has been written as a series of interviews between Skolos and Wedell, and beautifully designed by the artists themselves.

The result is a work of total design that showcases their unique way of thinking and working. Prototypes, iterations, and studio set-ups shed light on the process behind the finished work which unfolds in chronological order, subdivided in decades: '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s, '20s, with each section beginning with a timeline of notable events.

While a time-based taxonomy may seem unimaginative, it was critical for presenting the evolving working methods.

To provide the most direct view of the studio's collaborative design process, much of the text unfolds as a series of interviews with each other.
