We rarely do editorial posts here, but Steve Kroeter’s site, Designers & Books is obviously close to our hearts. They have just launched a Kickstarter campaign of a type we would love to see more of and we’re happy to tell as many people about it as possible:

Out of print for decades, Visual Design in Action is one of the most beautiful books on modern graphic design. Written and designed by Ladislav Sutnar and published in 1961, it has been called a “lost milestone” and a “treasure.”

With your help, we’re going to create a perfect reprint of this iconic book and make it available again to the creative community.

“Sutnar is the most under-appreciated giant in design. Putting Visual Design in Action back into print will make that right.” — Stefan Sagmeister, graphic designer, Sagmeister & Walsh
