Description

A comprehensive guide to graphic design principles and practice, first published in 1965, has been revised for modern designers. This manual takes a systematic approach to teaching graphic design, starting with fundamental elements and progressing to more complex processes. By analysing pictorial and formal elements, the book extracts their inherent rules, providing valuable knowledge that can be applied to both traditional and computer-based design. The methodical approach to learning design outlined in this book is still relevant today, particularly in desktop publishing, where a high degree of conceptual thinking and procedure are required. With the increasing use of personal computers and automatic word processing, this book offers an invaluable introduction to graphic design for designers working on computer display screens. With its systematic approach and focus on extracting inherent rules from pictorial and formal elements, this manual provides a solid foundation for understanding graphic design principles and practice.
