In this reprint of the second volume of Lettera, first published in 1961, series editor Armin Haab is joined by type-design superstar Walter Haettenschweiler. Volume 2 includes 64 complete alphabets. Typeface freaks will appreciate the delicacy and detail of faces designed and fashioned by hand in the era before offset typography -- and long before everyone had a list of ''fonts'' a mile long on their computer. The ornate display faces are amazing: check out Green Leaves, sprouting like a tree in the spring, and Grafik, an Art Deco marvel.

The shape of this leather ankle boot with square toe and heel makes any look bold and modern. These boldly colored ankle boots are a must of the season, to be an it girl with any look, from flared jeans to a more romantic dress. Taking care of the upper and leather soles is an important part of protecting the longevity and integrity of handcrafted luxury shoes. Shoes made in Italy, or shoes with leather soles, can last for years, but only if treated with care. It is important to note that an upper made of natural materials such as leather cannot last forever and that leather soles must be replaced at some point for the same reasons. Wearing shoes for too long on a worn sole can cause permanent damage to the shoe and also decrease its comfort. While there is no set rule for how regularly you should resole your Italian leather shoes (amount of wear, type of wear, water damage, and gait are all factors), a variety of signs help you know when it's time for a quick visit to your local shoemaker. Here are the main signs that your leather shoes need to be replaced 1. Uneven wear of the sole. Everyone walks differently and one of the joys of owning leather-soled shoes is watching how your shoes evolve according to your natural movements. Something to watch out for, however, is uneven wear. While it might be interesting to learn that you are favoring the outside of your feet, this type of uneven wear can diminish leather soles over time. Once you start to notice that the wear is becoming more and more noticeable, it's time for a resoling. If the shoe upper starts to come off the soles, it's time for a resoling. Sole breakage is caused by a variety of factors including rubbing of the toes, water damage, and even trying to dry shoes near a direct heat source (such as a home radiator). 2. Damage caused by water. This may not be a big deal for rubber-soled shoes or shoes with non-Italian mass-produced "leather effect" soles, while true luxury leather soles are susceptible to water damage. Even if being surprised by a light rain once or twice is not the end of the world, repeated exposure to water will affect the integrity of the soles and can irrevocably damage leather shoes. If you get caught out in the rain, make sure your shoes are dry enough before wearing them again. Remember to dry them naturally, with the soles facing up and away from any direct or strong heat sources. You can also choose to apply a thin rubber patch to the soles to help with extra protection - we recommend this is best practice for any Rangoni shoe you intend to wear on wet, wet days. Rangoni women's shoes are made with precious and high quality materials, which age magnificently over time with the right care and attention. After receiving your shoes, please refer to the care card included in the shoe box for specific care instructions. The more you take care of your shoes, the longer they will last. You just have to take care of them every few months with good shoe brushes, cloths...

Anyone entranced by the magic of fonts will want to add these ultra-cool, mid-century reprints from the archives of Swiss publisher Niggli to their library. The now-classic Lettera series was a sensation when this book first appeared in 1954, curated by Swiss photographer bookbinder-papermaker Armin Haab with typographer Alex Stocker. Volume 1 of the four-volume font library contains 62 alphabets and 190 examples of words, the majority designed by Stocker. They range from classic serif and sans-serif faces to mind-bending retro display faces that are almost totally forgotten today. The Index lists faces by name and designer.

In this reprint of the second volume of Lettera, first published in 1961, series editor Armin Haab is joined by type-design superstar Walter Haettenschweiler. Volume 2 includes 64 complete alphabets. Typeface freaks will appreciate the delicacy and detail of faces designed and fashioned by hand in the era before offset typography -- and long before everyone had a list of ''fonts'' a mile long on their computer. The ornate display faces are amazing: check out Green Leaves, sprouting like a tree in the spring, and Grafik, an Art Deco marvel.

Italia 2015. Copertina Rigida. -- 32 × 25 cm. ------- Pagine 204 , 211 Fotografie in b/n. *********************** Il volume, curato da Giovanna Calvenzi, contiene circa 200 fotografie selezionate dai suoi primi lavori fino al 2012, ed è introdotto da una lettera rivolta dal fotografo alla sua città. In questo testo motiva la sua costante ricerca artistica nei confronti di Milano e la volontà di documentazione del suo paesaggio urbano. Accompagnano le immagini testi e contributi di Marco Romano, Fulvio Irace, Vittorio Gregotti, Luca Doninelli, Alberto Garutti, Ferruccio de Bortoli, Gustavo Pietropolli Charmet, Michele De Lucchi, Francesco De Gregori, Antonio Bozzo, Francesco Moschini, Massimo Minini, Marina Spada, Italo Rota, Gianni Siviero, Marco Belpoliti, Mario Calabresi. Si tratta di architetti, intellettuali e artisti che regalano un ricordo della propria esperienza di collaborazione con Basilico oppure raccontano la loro relazione con la città. Marco Romano, ad esempio, racconta come maturò il progetto di un reportage sulla Milano delle fabbriche. Altri autori invece presentano la propria personale interpretazione del capoluogo lombardo: "Milano è un'irrequietezza che diventa smania di fare, le idee devono trasformarsi in qualcosa, e la trasformazione chiama la bellezza. Milano produce bellezza [] Amatela così. Solo questo potrà cambiarla", scrive Luca Doninelli. Completano il volume un testo critico e una nota biografica a cura di Roberta Valtorta e una nota bibliografica. "" ************************************
