The Meaning Underground<br />

Various<br />

The Meaning Underground is a publication featuring a selection of<br />

the best copywriting projects produced from 2006 to 2008. In order<br />

to illustrate in detail the nuances of copywriting, the book has been<br />

arranged in 9 sections, interconnected like underground stations. As<br />

it is very difficult to limit a message to a single category on the basis<br />

of a single concept, this book will feature a general classification of<br />

concepts devised as a transport network, whose underground stations<br />

are the nodes which make up the net. As in all the main Undergrounds,<br />

the categories have different names and colours. Words, like trains,<br />

are alive, mobile, curious, influenced and influential. Leafing through<br />

the book will be like a trip: at any time you can decide whether to skip<br />

from one station to another or discover random routes, which even<br />

though still following a linear scheme, allow you to explore individual<br />

landmarks and make comparisons between them.
