Naïve documents the return of classical graphic design reminiscent of the 1940s to 1960s in contemporary
graphic design.
The naive is a childlikeness, where it is no longer expected. Friedrich von
Schiller
A minimalist design vocabulary is currently being reinvented by a troop of young
graphic designers who are rediscovering the stylistic elements reminiscent of
classic graphic design such as silkscreen printing, classical typography, hand
lettering, woodcutting and folk

It’s 176 pages are loaded with beautiful and contemporary illustrations ranging from textiles and stationary to poster art and book covers. The editors did an impeccable job at selecting the artwork to go into this book because every page is inspiring, vibrant and shows a variety of modern artistic techniques. The artists chosen to be represented in this book are of high caliber, and their work speaks for itself. Some of the artists represented are: Helen Dardik, Matte Stephens, Jenn Ski, Hanna Werning, Public Domain & James Gulliver Hancock. The only text in this book are captions at the bottom of each page giving credit to the artist who’s work is being shown. I highly recommend this book, as it’s one of the most well done inspiration pieces I’ve seen in a long time.

This is exactly what I was hoping for. Glad I bought it. It’s a good source for color palette inspiration and the illustrations are beautiful. The cover is so striking, and the interior pages don’t disappoint.

This is what I expected.
A wonderful collection of retro style work by today’s designers and illustrators.
The mid-century approach is back in style and this book has hit the bulls eye.
