For the post sixty-one years, the Type Directors Club has encouraged the graphic arts community to achieve excellence in typography through annual competitions. Typography 36 is the TDC's newest annual volume devoted exclusively to typography ; the book presents the finest work in this field from 2014. Selected from more than 2000 international submissions to the sixty-first Type Directors Club competition, the 271 winning designs are models of excellence and innovation in contemporary type design. This year's selection encompasses a wide range of categories, including books, magazines, corporate identities, logotypes, packaging, video and web graphics, and posters. In addition, this year's volume features the results of the club's eighteenth annual typeface design competition, TDC2015. Each winning entry is displayed in full color and is accompanied by the complete information about the designer, client, typography and more. This edition also includes a special index listing the principal typefaces used with the names of their designers. The Judges' Choice sections future the winning entries that have been singled out as each judge's personal favorite ; and these pieces are accompanied not only by the judges' comments but also by statements from the designers about their creative process involved in developing each piece. These components―along with this year's chairs, Doug Clouse and Roberto de Vicq de Cumptich - exemplify the enormous vitality of the typography profession today.

Awarded for Typographic Excellence .-Wenn Sie diese vier Worte unter Ihre Arbeit schreiben, erleben Sie einen der echten Höhepunkte im Designerleben. Denn der TDC steht für strengste Juryarbeit, radikalen Qualitätsanspruch, sauberes Handwerk und innovative Ideen. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Wettbewerben kommen nicht ständig neue Kreativ-Kategorien hinzu, wird nicht mit höherem Einsatz besser gepokert. Es geht um typografische Exzellenz. Nicht mehr. Nicht weniger. Unter den Siegern des TDC Wettbewerbs entdecken wir Autoren und Gestalter, die uns ein Stück unseres Verlegerlebens begleiten. Die Siegerarbeiten sind der Maßstab, an dem wir uns orientieren. Der TDC-Award ist die Latte, die hoch liegt. Motivation zu Spitzenleistung. Was 1947 mit regelmäßigen Mittagessen von New Yorker Typo-Kreativer begann, ist zu einem Festmahl mit Zutaten aus 49 Länden avanciert. Enjoy it!
