松田行正：书装设计师。生于1948年。他将书作为艺术品对待，以设计“在书柜或桌上都具有存在意义及表达形式的图书”为理念。在从事图书设计的同时，他还运行着一家小型出版社牛若丸。自1985年起，牛若丸每年只出版一本书，都由松田行正亲自设计。除了书装设计，他还设计了很多建筑标志，执笔撰写了诸多文字作品，制作了大量信息图表。他着迷于研究各种事物的起源，最感兴趣的是文字与符号。他将自己的知识兴趣与设计理念融合，创作出《零ZEЯRO》《加et》《密码》《圆与方》《2的冒险》《偷窥一本书》《一千亿分之一的太阳系+四百万分之一的光速》等一批具有独特美感的书。他在多家设计类杂志上开设专栏，论述设计理念与实践的文章结集形成《开始物语》《图地反转》《眼的冒险》《线的冒险》《时的冒险》《设计的故事》《红色》等书。他的作品曾获得各种设计类奖项，包括日本书籍出版协会理事长奖、讲...(展开全部)
