In this critical examination of the Most Beautiful Swiss Books award, Thierry Chancogne interrogates the shifting definitions of aesthetic value within the field of typography. By tracing the historical trajectory of book design from the Enlightenment to the modern industrial era, the text evaluates the enduring influence of Jan Tschichold and the evolving criteria used to judge excellence in contemporary publishing. This bilingual publication offers a rigorous analysis of the institutional frameworks that define beauty in the printed object.
