Design & Designer 027 v.2 – Akroe, official blurb: Akroe is still one of the most prolific players on the French graphics scene. Though continuing his work for electronic-music labels and clothing brands, he is now extending his reach to other spheres. He recently illuminated the window displays of Galeries Lafayette department stores, illustrated pages in Japanese Vogue, and decorated a ceiling of the Printemps’ flagship store in Paris. He also created the very elegant poster for Céline Sciamma’s debut film, Naissance des pieuvres (Water Lilies).

Paris-based Pyramyd Editions has regularly been publishing monographs since 2002 featuring work by selected artists, graphic and product designers. These bilingual monographs form part of a series called Design & Designer. The books contain introductions and descriptions in French and English for the many featured project visuals. Each publication title has a serial number (such as Designer & Designer 033 – FL@33).

In some cases – especially within the first 25 of the series – a second and even third edition was published with fresh new content and a 'v.2' or 'v.3' added to the book title. Other titles go out of print and do not seem to be reprinted in the foreseeable future (such as Antoine+Manuel's book for example). At time of writing this text the Designer & Designer series already reached serial number 086.

A few selected titles are available here especially by some of our own contributors who already created button badges and more for Stereohype. Fill any gaps you may have in your collection or start yours today.
