There were many influential designers and artists that emerged during the postwar years. Academies such as the Weimar Art Academy were produced that drew inspiration from Expressionism, the De Stijl movement, and constructivism. Along with different art academies, typography also boomed during these years. Eric Gill was the creator of Gill Sans, Perpetua, and Golden Cockerel type families while Paul Renner created the type Futura. Along with typography innovators, Paul Schuitema incorporated these new types along with photography to compose his compositions. Isotype and photography during this time were being incorporated in graphic design compositions.
My question for this chapter is how did isotype come about and who invented it?
