Conundrums: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Conundrums" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
Conundrum is a mind-stretch. Encrypting idioms into their typographic equivalents, Harry enlivens our everyday language and challenges readers to see that time after time after time or, at least, more often than not the writing is on the wall. For fans of word puzzles, sudoku, crosswords, and all manner of mind games, Conundrum offers an artfully packaged, cleverly designed new challenge.
Drawing upon, literally in this case, graphic puzzles that he began creating as a child, Harrys developed over 100 witty conundrums for this book that will stretch the mind as well as delight the senses. A member of the Alliance Graphique Internationale, a frequent lecturer and contributor to design discourse, an internationally recognized leader in design, and a founder of Lippa Pearce, one of the UKs most respected design agencies, Harry refines the way we see and communicate. Conundrum achieves nothing less than changing how we understand and interact with language.

Nonsense that made sense; irreverence that became pure pleasure. Words became images, images words, and where was the line between the two? It didnt matter as long as they gave you a smile of recognition. So, visual games with words have stayed with me. And, strangely, these little games seem to have a life of their own. I started them years ago, a love affair between typography and phrase, and theyve been one step ahead of me ever since. Now, theres a conundrum.
Much as I want to capture these secrets, they always stay just out of reach. So I have to keep following in their footsteps but always sticking to the rules: one box, only two colours, just a single typeface. Sometimes the more cornered you are, the more fun you have. Harry Pearce
