"Diese liebevoll zusammengetragene Sammlung origineller Geschäftsausstattungen lässt mein Designerherz höher schlagen. ... Stationery Design Now! ist ein gutes Referenzwerk für jeden, der über neue Geschäftsdrucksachen oder auch nur eine Auffrischung nachdenkt."— Nils-Von-Blanc.de, Hamburg, Germany
"Zur Anregung für neues Briefpapier, Kuvert und Visitenkarte für die neue Geschäftsausstattung oder gerade bei einer Unternehmensneugründung präsentiert dieses Buch mehr als 200 ansprechende Beispiele für Geschäftsdrucksachen von Unternehmen aus der ganzen Welt."— forward textile technologies, Moers, Germany
"We're old fashioned guys. So, despite an increasingly digital world we still believe in letterhead. And, we still believe in the power of handwritten notes. Stationery Design Now! proves that graphic designers haven't forgotten about those things either. The book, published by TASCHEN reviews over 200 corporate stationery projects. An essay offering historic insight into the importance and the roll of stationery is provided by Jay Rutherford, Professor for Visual Communication at Bauhaus University Weimar. Together with contemporary materials, the background context helps promote a contemporary climate of celebration in regard to paper goods. Get it if you love stationery, typography, or are undertaking your own branding project."— Selectism.com, United States
"Never underestimate the power of a terrific letterhead. This is among the take-home messages of Stationery Design Now!, out later this month from TASCHEN. Edited by Julius Wiedemann, the multilingual volume features more than 200 outstanding stationery projects from companies around the world. The treasure trove of suitable-for-framing business cards, enviable envelopes, and cleverly coordinated corporate identities is sure to help you take a fresh look at your own creative communications once the fall rush begins. Surrounded by stationery skeptics? Grab a highlighter and turn right to Death of the Letterhead?, Jay Rutherford's essay on the historical and technical role of stationery design. The Bauhaus University professor really delivers."— Liquidtreat.com, United States
"There are hundreds of books on logo design… but there seem very few on stationery design. So we were delighted when Stationery Design Now! edited by Julius Wiedemann landed in our pigeon hole. The book starts of with an editorial raising the question: Death of the Letterhead? by Jay Rutherford and then just shows a vast amount of examples of stationery…The great thing is also that it showcases work by designers outside the group of usual subjects. Some of my favourite works where Base Design for Karen Karch, huvi for Spry Boutique and Lazona for Barfutura. I think Stationery Design Now! is a book that will definitely help us next time when we are creating a new visual identity."— GraphicBirdWatching.com, London, United Kingdom
