Wim Crouwel is one of the Netherlands' great design icons and is renowned for his systematic and creative approach to the shape of letters. In conversations with art historian Kees Broos, he explains in detail the reasoning and methodology behind his unique typefaces and tells many of the untold stories behind the work. Several of Crouwel's typefaces have been released in digital form including the New Alphabet in three weights, the Fodor and Stedelijk 'museum' alphabets, and recently, the entire Gridnik family. For designers and typographers who have long been fascinated by the way Crouwel applies his typefaces and for those who wish to understand his philosophy this book is a must have.
