This is a visual sourcebook of design details, motifs, icons, colour palettes, illustration styles and type. It analyses a wide range of classic design looks and breaks them down into the individual component, explaining their origins, what gives them their defining characteristics and showing examples of how they were used at the time. This is a compendium of design modules that any contemporary graphic designer can employ to accurately and authentically simulate retro styles.
