The Fundamentals of Creative Design

by Gavin D.T. Ambrose, Paul Harris

More than 200 color photos, plus 50 black and white illustrations, provide an illuminating, highly visual introduction to the key elements of graphic design. Each subject matter, or “fundamental,” uses detailed diagrammatic explanations to help students understand the basics. Formats and printing, layout, image and color usage, and more all receive the same in-depth treatment, always with an emphasis on real life application and possibilities.

I think this book tried to cover so many topics that it became boring. There has to be better books out there that tackle the basics of creative design, this is not it.

Livro introdutório bastante interessante sobre design gráfico, principalmente por não apenas contar as informações, mas mostrá-las de forma visual, impressa no livro.

One of the few books I keep re reading because it's THAT good!
