MIN, The New Simplicity in Graphic Design

MIN: The New Simplicity in Graphic Design is a survey of minimalist graphic design by Stuart Tolley. It is the first thorough look at the return of simplicity to the field.

The cover carries the argument. Pale blue board, white sans-serif type set small along the edge, and large letterforms left as outlines rather than filled in. The title repeats unadorned on the spine.

Inside, the book gathers minimalist designers from many countries across print formats and media. It is reference material that makes a case. Tolley’s studio Transmission art-directed and designed it.
