Amelia Nash reviews Taschen's The Elements of Brand Design, a 496-page survey by Katharina Sussek and Jens Müller covering 110 identity systems. She praises its design, breadth, case studies, and interviews, while arguing that it mistakes visible brand elements for the underlying strategic judgment that creates enduring brands. Nash contends that as AI commoditizes logos, palettes, type pairings, and motion, defensible decisions and point of view become the true source of brand value.

Studio Freight has unveiled a comprehensive rebrand and new website after years of intentionally maintaining a low profile.

The Northern Block is rebuilding its typeface library through the Next Series, reengineering its core families like Loew, Lintel, and Nurom for global, multiscript use. The project involves international collaborators and advanced interpolation systems to improve readability and consistency across scripts and sizes.

The article profiles animation director and illustrator Christa Jarrold, who creates 3D worlds that blend handmade textures with digital precision.
