Letters From Mm (paris)

A fabulous typographic exploration of letterforms and typography from one of Europe’s leading design studios. The M/M (Paris) Letters is a comprehensive study of the typefaces produced by Michael Amzalag and Mathias Augustyniak since they founded their influential art and design practice, M/M (Paris). For the first time, ninety of the designers’ typefaces are catalogued chronologically in a three-part volume, comprising the history of their development; exclusive type specimens; and detailed illustrations of projects in which they appear. With a foreword by Bjoerk, whose collaboration with M/M spans more than two decades, this encyclopedic volume traces the distinctive and integral nature of type, lettering, and signs in M/M’s work, from one-off art commissions to the fashion label and its enduring collaborations with musicians and theatres. This comprehensive type collection is the perfect companion to the two-volume monograph M to M/M (Paris), and will appeal not only to graphic designers, historians and students, but to anyone interested in art and visual culture.
