Design & Designer 048 – Via Grafik, official blurb: The members of Via Grafik created their collective in 1998 and chose their name as a slogan. Construction, deconstruction and provocation are recurring themes in their work. There is a very strong interaction between their graphics and graffiti – two disciplines that nourish and enrich each other. The collective fuse artistic techniques and practices, faithful to their motto, "From wall to screen to everything". Clients include Nike, Volkswagen and Nintendo. One of their installations was recently exhibited in the courtyard of the Klingspor Museum for Modern International Book Art, Typography and Calligraphy in Offenbach, Germany.

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.
