One Day by Emil Kozak by Mike Giles
Published by Index Books and compiled by Danish graphic designer Emil Kozak, "'One Day' takes a comprehensive look at how graphics have entered our daily lives and adorn everything from alarm clocks to skateboards."
The book was both conceived and orchestrated to illustate how these “beautified” objects give personality and life to everyday objects as well as help to create the “visual soundtrack” to our lives.
The 252 page book is available for €35 at the Index book webshop and guaranteed to make your coffee table more beautiful.
