As part of IdN’s 100th Issue celebrations, «IdN Extra 04: Most Wanted Vol. 1» presents nearly 100 of the most talented creators in today’s design world! Select and hand picked by 10 of today’s most influential designers, who in turn were each asked to name 10 artists in any design filed whose work particularly impressed them. The result is a unique cross section of the contemporary design world, as represented by some of the most interesting artists and designers in the modern day design industry. This is certainly a book to keep and look back on – to see where design was at at the end of the 21st century first decade.

Participation in the book «TypoLyrics» edited by Slanted in which designers interpret music in entirely new ways with the help of fonts. The result is a collection of more than 170 visuals – typographic images that present contemporary fonts a little bit differently. On analogy with the traditional classification of fonts, the book is organized into eleven chapters, each of which treats a particular font family and song lyrics from a particular musical style from classical to punk.
