Graphis is an international publisher of books on communication design. Based in New York City, Graphis presents and promotes the best submitted work in graphic design, advertising, photography and art/illustration around the world.

The word ‘graphis” (gra-fee-s) derives from the ancient Greek word graphein which meant “mark-making’ and which covers written and drawn marks. This publication explores the unique nature of an individual mark through typography, tone, and texture. Each issue highlights the handwriting of the monthly featured designer in the form of a masthead located on the sprine of the magazine, which changes monthly.
