A visual survey of graphic design styles through the ages—an essential resource for designers, art and design students, and art lovers

By Steven Heller, with illustrations by Seymour Chwast

With more than 700 illustrations, this volume is the only wide-ranging history of graphic design to be completely visual, and many readers treasure it for its amazing trove of images. This new edition has been brought up to date with a section that encompasses trends from the last decade. 

Graphic Style, said Studio magazine of the first edition, “should be on the shelf of every serious designer/illustrator.”
