Sweet Enough: A Dessert Cookbook
Alison Roman · 2023
Salt Fat Acid Heat
Wendy MacNaughton , Michael Pollan (introduction) Samin Nosrat (author) (illustrator) · 2017
"While cooking at Chez Panisse at the start of her career, Samin Nosrat noticed that amid the chaos of the kitchen there were four key principles that her fellow chefs would always fall back on to make their food better: Salt, Fat, Acid and Heat. By mastering these four variables, Samin found the confidence to trust her instincts in the kitchen and cook delicious meals with any ingredients. With her simple but revolutionary method, she has taught masterclasses to give both professionals and amateurs the skills to cook instinctively. Whether you want to balance your vinaigrette, perfectly caramelise your roasted vegetables or braise meltingly tender stews, Samin's canon of 100 essential recipes and their dozens of variations will teach you how. Destined to be a classic, Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat just might be the last cookbook you'll ever need. Samin's clear, warm, and informative lessons will give you the confidence and instincts to unshackle yourself from the tyranny of following a recipe, and make you a cook for life." -- Provided by publisher.

The Package Design Book
Julius Wiedemann · 2017
Verpackungen sind ein wesentlicher Bestandteil unserer visuellen Alltagskultur. Sie wollen verführen und Verlangen erwecken und versprechen einen lustvolleren Konsum. Verpacken ist eine Kunstform, die eine angemessenere und glamourösere Würdigung verdient als nur die Zufriedenheit dankbarer Werbekunden über gesteigerte Umsatzzahlen: Bei den Pentawards, dem wichtigsten internationalen Wettbewerb für Packaging Design, werden alljährlich in wechselnden Städten Europas, Asiens und Amerikas die elegantesten, stylishsten und außergewöhnlichsten Verpackungslösungen weltweit prämiert, von den ins Auge springenden Boxen der deutschen Agentur Amelung für das Memo-Sprachenspiel von Lingua Simplex (2014) über Pizzaschachteln von John Knowles Ritchie in London und Maggi-Flaschen im Texmex-Stil der Schweizer Agentur ARD SA (beide 2016) bis zu Verpackungen für Sisheido-Gesichtsmasken (2010) und fantastisch gestalteten Zementsäcken (!) der großartigen Agentur Mousegraphics aus Athen (2009). Seit ihrer Gründung haben sich die Pentawards zu einem Megaevent entwickelt, bei dem die brillantesten Kreativen im Packaging Design miteinander wetteifern. Dieser Band zeigt, wer von 2008 bis 2016 in den fünf Hauptgruppen Beverages, Food, Body, Luxury und Other Markets mit ihren zahllosen Unterkategorien die findige Nase vorne hatte, alle Preisträger, alle Produkte, alle wunderbaren Lösungen, die "Bestrebungen der Kunden, die Realitäten des Produkts und das Potenzial des Kontextes" (Gregory Tsaknakis, Gründer und Inhaber von mousegraphics) zu neuen, inspirierenden Designideen zu verbinden.

Grid Systems in Graphic Design
josef-m · 1981
A grid system is a rigid framework that is supposed to help graphic designers in the meaningful, logical and consistent organization of information on a page. It is an established tool that is used by print and web designers to create well-structured, balanced designs. Rudimentary versions of grid systems existed since the medieval times, but a group of Swiss graphic designers, mostly inspired in ideas from typographical literature started building a more rigid and coherent system for page layout. The core of these ideas were first presented by Müller-Brockmann who helped to spread the knowledge about the grids thorough the world. This volume provides guidelines and rules for the function and use for grid systems from 8 to 32 grid fields which can be used for the most varied of projects, the three-dimensional grid being treated as well. Exact directions for using all of the grid systems possibe presented are given to the user, showing examples of working correctly on a conceptual level.
