Title: Typorama: The Graphic Work of Philippe Apeloig
Authors: Alice Morgaine, Tino Grass
Introduction: Jean-Jacques Aillagon
Essays: Alice Morgaine, Ellen Lupton  

Philippe Apeloig has developed a typographic language strongly connected to rhythm, structure, pattern, space and choreography. Originally published to accompany a major exhibition at the Musée des Art Décoratifs in Paris, Typorama explores the entirety of Apeloig’s graphic design process and philosophy.

The book 

Typorama reproduces a range of Apeloig’s posters, visual identities, publications, logos and motion works, contextualised through essays, and analyses the influences that have fuelled his work.

“Philippe Apeloig represents the best of the new wave of innovative French typography. An artist in type, his work forms a masterclass in the power of typographic expression.”
—Adrian Shaughnessy, co-founder Unit Editions
