Designers need to make information accessible and available to everyone - but how do they arrive at such elegant and useful solutions to complicated problems? Covering a broad spectrum of material, from signs and maps to electronic manuals, this work presents an international selection of work that makes our world function smoothly, including designs by such masters as Erik Spiekermann of MetaDesign in Germany, Richard Saul Wurman in the USA and Hiroyuki Kimura of Tube Design in Japan. Within each chapter are detailed case studies that examine a single project in depth, from the client's initial request to the finished product.
