- Summary:
- A sprawling compendium of Art Deco design from across Europe, "Euro Deco" features a broad range of exemplary graphic ephemera. Culled from Steven Heller and Louise Fili's popular "International Deco" series of inspirational reference books, the material in "Euro Deco" comes from Italy, Spain, the UK, Germany, France, and the Netherlands, primarily between WWI and WWII -- the time when the continent gave birth to modern graphic design. Well over a thousand images from posters, packaging, advertisements, menus, and brochures display the elegant geometry and harmonious marriage of typography and illustration that make deco a popular style to this day. A generous package at an attractive price, "Euro Deco" is poised to be a standard graphic resource for designers, collectors, and aesthetes alike.
