Stefan Sagmeister's newest project, "Now is Better," is a powerful exploration of long-term thinking and a reminder of the positive advancements happening in the world. Initially conceived in 2020 during the pandemic lockdown, Sagmeister has created a captivating book that provides a comprehensive look at the current state of the world. Through a collection of data, the book illuminates how far we have come and encourages us to contemplate where we can go from here.
Statistics are brought to life in captivating ways, as numbers are transformed into graphs, inlaid into nineteenth-century paintings, embroidered canvases, lenticular prints, and hand-painted water glasses. The book features a foreword by psychologist and language authority Steven Pinker, a featured essay by graphic designer and historian Steven Heller, and a conversation between Sagmeister and Hans Ulrich Obrist, curator and artistic director of Serpentine Galleries in London.
"Now is Better" will appeal to all visually minded readers, offering a refreshing and positive perspective amidst the tumultuous news cycle of recent years. Published in softcover with flaps, the book is contained within a die-cut slipcase and accompanied by a lenticular print designed by Sagmeister.
"Now is Better" is an intriguing and thoughtful visual meditation on our daily lives, inviting us to appreciate the progress and possibilities that exist in the world. It serves as a reminder that, despite challenges, there is always hope for a better future.
