Clubbed: A Visual History of UK Club Culture

£35.00

Clubbed celebrates the best graphic design in UK clubs and features logos, posters, photography, tickets, menus, cover art, signage, lanyards, fonts and, yes, flyers from the last 35 years
The deluxe, diamond dust, hardback features a dazzling collection of never-before-published materials and a specially commissioned editorial from Bill Brewster
This beautifully conceived graphic design reference book is separated into chapters celebrating the UK's most famous clubs and legendary nights, celebrating the past, but also journeying to the present, focusing on the most forward-thinking graphic designers working in clubs today
The journey starts in the 1980s with the Haçienda, then heads off into a dizzying road journey via Mansfield, Liverpool and several points in between before alighting at the Printworks in London with some of the modern era's best graphic design work
Many of the graphics in the book are pre-digital and the internet so a lot of time has been spent scanning old transparencies, bromides and retouching physical hard copies. In some cases the graphics have been recreated from scratch down to every minute detail
The book features some of the best designers and studios in the world
