Description:
Chic restaurants, modernist lobbies, exotic beaches, retro ski wear, stylish underwear, haute couture luxury accessories--Jordi Labanda illustrates it all in his familiar, faux-naïf, super-cool, sophisticated style. Combining the look of comic books (Archie not Superman) and little girls' picture books with a dashing retro flair, an elegant line, and a unique interpretation of commercial advertising concepts, Labanda creates seamless, mildly sexy worlds in which everything looks good enough to want and human relations sit front and center. Drawing in gouache on paper with marten-hair brushes, Labanda makes no use of computers. Hey Day is the first compilation of his work, providing a wide, gorgeous variety of the imagery he has created over the last few years.
Introduction by Tyler Brule.
Hardcover, 9.25 x 12.75 in. 152 pages, 150 color illustrations

A great book!Feb 08, 2008 Who ever who likes cool and chic illustrations this is the book. Jordi Labanda is a great illustrator and his work is famous all over the world. I love this book.
Simplemente el mejorJan 11, 2007 Para mi Jordi Labanda es el mejor ilustrador de modas que existe actualmente y este libro recoge varias muestras de su trabajo en la que s personajes estilizados, chic, y con "actitud" sobresalen. Casi se puede adivinar la personalidad de los personajes que dibuja con solo mirarlos. Si buscas una muestra general del trabajo de Labanda y como éste se aplica a moda e incluso diseño de interiores, este libro te va a encantar. Y la calidad de a impresión, la textura del papel, las páginas dobles... un sueño.
