Design & Designer 036 – Johnson Banks, official blurb: Michael Johnson, named one of Britain’s top 10 graphic designers by The Independent newspaper in 2003, heads the johnson banks agency. His is a disparate world, but always amusing and cheeky. He works for cultural institutions, carries out advertising commissions, and produces politically committed posters. He has received eight trophies from the UK’s Design & Art Direction club. He has made his mark with posters for La Villette in Paris and for the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

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.
