However, providing suitable packaging for their food that allows diners to enjoy the restaurant experience at home represents a real challenge, for both restaurants and designers.

Colors can be mesmerizing, which sometimes is not necessarily a good thing. The use of black, white and gray in the design process helps to narrow the focus on the design itself. The three often less eye-catching colors allow the viewers to grasp the essence of a design. 

Black & White & Gray Graphic Design showcases outstanding graphic designs that are based on the three powerful colors. Thoughts from designers sharing their insights on the use of these raw and honest colors are presented in a note that comes with the book.

Original and unconventional visual identities from the world of eating, drinking, and hospitality. The hot topics of eating and drinking are spawning a range of small, creative companies with innovative concepts. These enterprises are making their own mustards, distilling their own liquor, selling handmade marmalades, or serving grandma’s cake recipes in new ways. Although based on very different ideas, the businesses are all defined by their originality and personal character, which are then reflected and communicated in eye-catching visual identities. These start with names, logos, fonts, and colors and culminate in product, packaging, and shop design. Knife and Fork is a showcase of these unconventional visual identities and design concepts. As the featured coffee roasters, fusion food bistros, or chocolate manufacturers prove, the effectiveness of an integrated visual identity for this type of venture is more dependent on creative implementation than a big budget.

At the heart of branding, is the belief that every business has a personality as unique as the people who who run it. It is to create a brand that connects the organization with its target market, to attract consumers, and to arouse customer’s desire to purchase.

From brochures and catalogues to business cards and flyers design, all of them aim to draw in potential consumers and investors. In order to achieve an optimum result, designers will do their utmost to create aesthetic, eye-catching and powerful print design, which is, at the same time, a big challenge and eternal pursuit of designers.

A top-level product needs an admirable packaging design to foil. Every excellent brand has a soul, whilst packaging is its appearance. In the modern market, the charm of packaging design becomes a big factor to hook customers. So to speak, each packing is, exactly, a billboard.

Unlike colours perceivable under normal light, metallic colours add lustre to surfaces as they glare even in the dimmest light. historical uses of precious metals such as gold, silver and bronze have endowed these shiny tones with ideas, such as deity, wealth and brilliance.

Advanced techniques and cheaper production costs today however require designers use metallic tones with greater sensitivity. Coming after Black & White and Multicolour, Gold & Silver is the third of viction:ary’s colour-themed series PALETTE which singly focuses on the dynamic play of metallic ink and materials in graphical designs.

North and South America are more alike than the many socio-cultural and economic differences may let it appear. Influenced by the same source of music, street art and pop culture and thanks to globalization a unifying thread between the two exists. This thread is reflected in the work of various graphic design studios throughout the whole American continent. Due to political and environmental upheaval in this region, the designer's role here has recently been shifting from creating merely new and exciting work to transmitting an ethical and responsible message with their projects.
