I Wonder: The Golden Book

Printed in China, published in London, and designed by an amazing Canadian woman, I Wonder is one of the best books of 2010. I pre-ordered it through Amazon, and I can savour every golden detail.

Marian Bantjes is one of the most artistic typographers I have ever come across, and in this book she talks about her life, career, love, emotions, and lots of letters.

Is incredible how versatile, and colorful this book is on every single page – I have never seen any book like this. For me, it is my Bible.

“The simpler, the better is the lesson for designers. That design should be the servant to the master of content. The designer’s job is only to clear the path, and do nothing that would detract from the focus of the text.”

Hi, I’m Giuseppe Salerno aka Resistenza.es, an Italian graphic designer, specializing in graphic design and web design, currently living and working in Valencia, Spain. I’ve spent more than 10 years working in creative design. I have been working in Torino, Amsterdam, Madrid, and Valencia. I’ve studied graphic design and multimedia and as soon as I finished I went to work for a great art director in Torino, Simona Alborno. I learned a lot working with her, especially in print design. But my experience at Artmiks in Amsterdam was the best! I was there for almost a year seeing every creative project that came out of the agency… was just incredible. And of course Tierra Virtual – Valencia was the best place where to optimize my knowledge. Typography is my obsession. Actually working as Art Director at Canales.
