本書包含了何浩2003–2013年間的主要作品，及部分作品的創作手記。從2000年代開始至今，何浩作為一個獨立設計者，為包括艾未未、徐冰等數十位中國當代藝術最具代表性的藝術家設計了超過百部的書籍。他的工作伴隨著中國當代藝術的發展，使本書成為了一部獨特的中國當代藝術文獻。從書中收錄的作品可以看出，何浩設計中蘊含的特質，既迥異於當下中國的平面設計流行範式，也與西方過度職業化下的設計形態相疏離，顯示出了一種生長於東方文化與本土之上的當代性，由此也提示了平面設計當代轉向的一種可能。
何浩的設計是從內容中生長出來的，它只關心如何發現和呈現內容本身的價值，卻不露「設計」痕跡，這種設計理念不妨稱為「元設計」。——徐冰
何浩是一位迷戀時空對話的設計家，他敏感於歷史的壓力，萬物的嬗變，他在沉思冥想中安身立命，成為商業化外的獨行者。——北島
An independent print-media practitioner, He Hao has been working with distinctive and representative artists in the Chinese contemporary art world, including Ai Weiwei, Xu Bing, etc., and designed more than 100 high-quality books and catalogs since 2003. Recording the current state of art development in China, his works have become an archive of significance. He Hao’s practice shows an Asian trend in today’s graphic design: the replacement of transplanted Modernism with a contemporaneity informed by the culture and lifestyle of contemporary China and the East.
He Hao’s designs grow organically from the content. His sole concern is the discovery and presentation of the content, and his designs show no trace of his hand. This approach might best be called “essential design.” ——Xu Bing
He Hao is a designer infatuated with the dialogue between space and time. Sensitive to both the pressures of history and the endless transformations of all life forms, he remains in deep and focused meditation, a lone sojourner outside the commercial realm.——Bei Dao
