Design

FL@33's Tomi Vollauschek (under the FL@33 tag) conceived, compiled, wrote, edited and designed a total of three books to date that were published worldwide by Laurence King and partner publishers: Postcard appeared in 2008, followed by Made & Sold: Toys, T-Shirts, Prints, Zines and Other Stuff in 2009 and more recently The 3D Type Book in 2011. Postcard was also translated into French (Cartes Postales, Pyramyd Editions), German (Postcard: Postkarten-Design heute, DuMont Buchverlag) and Spanish (Postales: Diseño por correo, Gustavo Gili).
