Extra Bold

A Feminist, Inclusive, Anti-racist, Nonbinary Field Guide for Graphic Designers

Ellen Lupton, Jennifer Tobias

"Extra Bold" is a must-read career guide for anyone in the design industry. This book is unlike any other career book you have read before! It offers practical advice and explores power structures & challenges unique to the design industry. Interviews with people in various stages of their careers and biographical sketches on individuals marginalized by sexism, racism, and ableism make this book both pragmatic and inquisitive. You'll also find practical guides on everything from starting out to cover letters and mentoring. The book rethinks design principles and practices through theories of feminism, anti-racism, inclusion and nonbinary thinking. Plus, it offers new voices to the dominant design canon. Collaboratively written by a diverse team of authors with original, handcrafted illustrations that bring warmth and narrative depth to the book.
