This book just arrived in our office and it’s staring right at me!
There’s more than a little something of the late, great Paul Rand about the transfixing cover for Essentials of Visual Communication by Bo Bergstrom (published by Laurence King) wouldn’t you say?
…which is about all the excuse I need to post this great video:
(Full disclosure: Raincoast Books distribute Laurence King, and therefore Essentials of Visual Communication, in Canada)

Hi Bo! Thank you for stopping by the site.
I love the cover of Visual Communication! Comparing it to Paul Rand is definitely a compliment, and I’m glad you enjoyed the film.
Your book only just arrived, but I am going to start reading it soon!
