An insider?s guide to the fresh, talented graphic designers, illustrators, printmakers and collectives that are at the heart of a burgeoning and creatively dynamic scene ? independent, print-based design.

In a world in which screen-based graphics and digital design dominate the mainstream, creating design for print continues to thrive among an international community of like-minded individuals. People of Print brings together more than 50 key artists and studios who embrace print?s potential for creative expression and experimentation.

Written by Marcroy Smith, founder of the eponymous online resource, and Andy Cooke, his long-time collaborator, People of Print presents a dazzling array of work created for paper and beyond, including posters, flyers, packaging, fanzines, self-published books, textiles and fashion, and exhibition design.
