Description
With international clients recognising diverse religious observations, an increasing number of festivals, celebrations, and holidays are appearing on the calendar, and designers are being commissioned to communicate celebration greetings to audiences worldwide. "Celebration Graphics Sourcebook" presents innovative case studies from across all media, budgets, and cultures. As celebrations are a time for fun, these solutions are also some of the most exuberant and beguiling graphic solutions in contemporary design. Examples featured come from a wide range of seasonal holidays, non-religious celebrations, weddings, naming ceremonies, and birthday celebrations, among others. Celebrations are arranged month by month, interspersed with weddings, birthdays, Name Days, Bar Mitzvahs, and other life-marking events. An extensive resources section lists religious observations in every major religion, as well as dates, colour palettes, iconography, symbols, phrases, and ceremonies.
