Keith Godard (b. 1940)is one of the most unusual personalities on the graphic design scene. His New York practice deals mainly with exhibition design. His posters also create sensations on a regular basis, All his work shares a striking degree of cheerfulness in form and colour, and a sense of humour that gives a hint of Godard's British origins. Despite this, the designer is committed to function and reduced graphics. He trust the power of the idea. This small-format book is conceived as something that will inspire designers with courage.

Keith Godard is one of the finest architectural graphic designers alive today. From designing posters for the Staten Island Children's Museum to exhibitions for the United Nations, Keith's work shows great diversity. Even though his designs are of the highest sophistication, he maintains a sense of whimsy and playfulness. This book, in itself, is creatively conceived. There are two front covers. Open from one side and you see a collection of amazing posters. Open the book from the other side and there are installation designs to take your breath away. Mr. Godard's comments for each project are very enlightening. If you are a graphic designer, you need to have this book in your collection. The best part is that it won't take up much real estate on that overcrowded bookshelf.
