“IF IT WAS JUST ME AND A TAMBOURINE,
IT WOULD STILL BE THE FALL”
– Mark E. Smith

House HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® HOUSE Industries® Join the House Industries crew as they chronicle their first ten years of trying to make an honest buck in the design business. Founded in 1993, House parlayed a few open-minded clients and some original display fonts into a marginally successful enterprise. These 240 pages offer a visual and anecdotal history of their ascent from a modest two-man operation to a paragon of integrity, creativity, hyperbole and humility. Follow House Industries as they deal with everything from clueless New York art directors and miserly advertising agencies to binge-drinking building contractors and hard-working prostitutes. Brose through hundreds of detailed illustrations and self-absorbed narratives in an extensive retrospective of House’s trademark exploitation of cultural icons that range from hot rods to Swiss Modernism. Finally, gain an insider’s view of the House Industries process with a special section full of tips, tidbits and fancy transparent vellum overlays. The accompanying CD features five original fonts (shown below) created exclusively for this book plus a few priceless House sound bites. House Industries superfans (both of them), budding graphic duh-signers looking to boost a few ideas, style conscious cofee table book buyers and general tastemakers will find this volume an invaluable resource.
