Flexible Visual Systems is a new design manual for graphic designers, creative coders and motion designers outlining contemporary visual identities for a variety of approaches on how to design flexible systems, adjustable to any aesthetic or project in need of an identifiable visual language.
The book is divided into three parts, beginning with an illustrated theoretic introduction explaining the past, present and future of flexible systems. It describes how they were used in the past, how they are used today and why they should not just organize formal solutions, but the way how we work.
The second part is a largely visual description of how to design flexible systems on form, starting with a circle, triangle, square, pentagon and hexagon.
The third part explains how transformation processes can become flexible systems for visual identities.
