55 degrees north

In the last five years a new wave of designers have won Scandinavia an international reputation for graphic design excellence. Their prolific output, especially on the web, has influenced designers and design audiences worldwide. Many are now working abroad, with cities such as London and New York experiencing a great influx of Scandinavian talent.

55 Degrees North, Contemporary Scandinavian Graphic Design was designed and edited by Patrick Sundqvist during the winter of 2002. The book was published by Laurence King Publishing Limited in London in the fall of 2002 and is now available here at the Stylegala BookStore.

Featuring work ranging from pixel-based art, 3D character design, web and video projects to record sleeves, flyers, posters and editorial design, 55 Degrees North brings together fifty-five of the best graphic designers from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.

The book contains 360 color illustrations spread over 176 pages.
