Ellen Lupton Libros

Descripción del editor: " La Bauhaus es el fenómeno más ampliamente conocido, debatido, imitado, diseccionado y difundido del diseño moderno. Pero en las últimas décadas la educación en el diseño ha olvidado unos de sus legados más importantes: la necesidad de reflexionar sobre el diseño de un modo teóricamente instrospectivo. Este pequeño gran libro proporciona la oportunidad de revigorizar el diseño gráfico actual revisando las ideas de la Bauhaus y alentando el pensamiento crítico de los medios y los fines del diseño. Este libro analiza los orígenes y el impacto de la Bauhaus en relación con el diseño básico, el diseño gráfico y la tipografía. Mientras que el texto es una incitante búsqueda de los objetivos y los logros de la Bauhaus, el libro en sí mismo es un manifiesto de sus ideales, en una síntesis de concepción editorial, tipografía y artesanía"

El libro está dividido en tres secciones: letra, texto y retícula. Partiendo de la unidad básica que es la letra, aborda después las particularidades de la organización de las palabras en cuerpos de texto coherentes y sistemas flexibles. Los proyectos de muestra y los ejercicios prácticos que se incluyen, explican no solo cómo se estructura la tipografía, sino por qué se hace así, con la intención de desvelar las bases funcionales y culturales que residen tras las convenciones del diseño.

This book offers a comprehensive exploration of Bauhaus typography and print design, tracing its evolution from expressive beginnings to modern functionalism. Celebrated for its bold typefaces and innovative layouts, the Bauhaus has profoundly influenced 20th-century graphic design and continues to define modern visual aesthetics.

A Fast Company “Most Important Books for Designers to Read Right Now” Discover how the principles of human-centered design can be applied to real-world health challenges in dozens of illustrated examples—from drug packaging and cancer detection devices to post-COVID-19 innovations. Written by pioneers in the field—Bon Ku, a physician leader in innovative health design, and Ellen Lupton, an award-winning graphic designer—this book outlines the fundamentals of design thinking and highlights important products, prototypes, and research in health design. This revised and expanded edition describes innovations developed in response to the COVID-19 crisis, including an intensive care unit in a shipping container, a rolling cart with intubation equipment, and a mask brace that gives a surgical mask a tighter seal. Graphics by Lupton bring these ideas to life. The authors also explore the special overlap of health care and the creative process, describing the development of such products and services as a credit card–sized device that allows patients to generate their own electrocardiograms; a mask designed to be worn with a hijab; improved emergency room signage; and a map of racial disparities and COVID-19. Health Design Thinking is an essential volume for health care providers, educators, patients, and designers who seek to create better experiences and improved health outcomes for individuals and communities.

"100 traditional yet surprisingly modern recipes from the far northern corners of Russia, featuring ingredients and dishes that young Russians are rediscovering as part of their heritage. Russian cookbooks tend to focus on the food that was imported from France in the nineteenth century or the impoverished food of the Soviet era. Beyond the North Wind explores the true heart of Russian food, a cuisine that celebrates whole grains, preserved and fermented foods, and straightforward but robust flavors. Recipes for a dazzling array of pickles and preserves, infused vodkas, homemade dairy products such as farmers cheese and cultured butter, puff pastry hand pies stuffed with mushrooms and fish, and seasonal vegetable soups showcase Russian foods that are organic and honest--many of them old dishes that feel new again in their elegant minimalism. Despite the country's harsh climate, this surprisingly sophisticated cuisine has an incredible depth of flavor to offer in dishes like Braised Cod with Horseradish, Roast Lamb with Kasha, Black Currant Cheesecake, and so many more. This home-style cookbook with a strong sense of place and knack for storytelling brings to life a rarely seen portrait of Russia, its people, and its palate--with 100 recipes, gorgeous photography, and essays on the little-known culinary history of this fascinating and wild part of the world"-- Provided by publisher

"According to Georgian legend, God took a supper break while creating the world. He became so involved with his meal that he inadvertently tripped over the high peaks of the Caucasus, spilling his food onto the land below. The land blessed by heaven's table scraps became Georgia. Nestled in the Caucasus mountain range between the Black and Caspian seas, the Republic of Georgia is as beautiful as it is bountiful. The unique geography of the land, which includes both alpine and subtropical zones, has created an enviable culinary tradition. Winner of the IACP Julia Child Award for Cookbook of the Year, The Georgian Feast introduced a generation of cooks to the rich and robust cuisine and culture of Georgia. This revised and expanded anniversary edition features new photography, recipes, and an essay from celebrated wine writer Alice Feiring."
