Erik Spiekermann describes type like music. For that reason, this book about the typeface designer is musically themed. All section are named after musical ideas and the color scheme, black and white, is representative of sheet music. The type is also laid out rhythmically. The book is hand bound and pages are accordion fold.
Due to Spiekermann's experience with letterpress, images are two color halftone.
