Download or read book I Heart Design written by Steven Heller and published by Rockport Publishers. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Heart Design is a collection of “favorite” designs as selected by 80 prominent graphic designers, typographers, teachers, scholars, writers and design impresarios. Designers have preferences, like modern over postmodern, serif over sans serif, decorative over minimal, but designers could not be engaged in design practice if they did not love design. The reasons for such a charged emotion varies from individual to individual, but there are certain commonalities regarding form, function, outcome, and more. Design triggers something in all of us that may be solely aesthetic or decidedly content-driven, but in the final analysis, we are drawn to it through the heart. Designs featured include the iconic CBS eye, the stark Kodak identity, the Coca-Cola bottle, and, of course, The Rolling Stones’ Sticky Fingers album cover.

Download or read book The Computer in Graphic Design written by Ronald Labuz and published by Van Nostrand Reinhold Company. This book was released on 1993 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This unique book documents the brief yet exciting history of the computer in graphic design and goes on to examine the work and working practices of designers who are leading the way in the use of this technology. As an alternative to design annuals, Ronald Labuz's The Computer in Graphic Design offers a serious examination of the nature of computer-generated graphic design and suggests to design professionals and students the unlimited possibilities this technology permits." "The book charts four distinct ways in which graphic designers have used computers over the past 15 years, including two visible methods ("primitive" and "sophisticated") and two invisible methods ("hidden" and "allusive"). The international group of graphic designers and design firms whose work is vividly and colorfully highlighted in the book reflect these differing philosophies. This original format allows for comparisons and contrasts and helps to frame the ongoing debate as to where computer graphic design is headed." "After an opening chapter on the evolution of computer design style. The Computer in Graphic Design focuses on those designers whose work has obviously been created by the computer, including such "new primitives" as Rudy VanderLans, Max Kisman, John Hersey, and Zuzana Licko. In the next section, the book details the work of designers who see technology as a participatory vehicle in high art and design. Topics here include the hybrid imagery of April Greiman, and the relationship of color value to the computer as mirrored in the work of Kazumasa Nagai." "Juxtaposed with these two related movements are those designers whose use of the computer is far less obvious. Members of one group, which includes such prominent designers as Nancy Skolos, Kenneth Hiebert, and Lance Hidy, take advantage of the computer's speed and control while forging individual styles that are not compromised by a reliance on new technology. The final group also uses the computer but, for individual reasons, does not allow it to visually emerge. Among the individuals and firms whose work is profiled here are Johnee Bee, Michael Weymouth Design, and IIT/Institute of Design." "The final section of The Computer in Graphic Design takes a look at today's typography and type design and the computer's impact on these fields, discusses the inevitable conflict between classicists of form and the advocates of primitive type design, and examines the radical changes that may come in the near future." "The Computer in Graphic Design is required reading - and viewing - for every professional and student excited by the possibilities of the collaboration between the graphic designer and the computer. The book will help readers resolve how they will use the computer in their own designs, taking their cue from the work and actual words of the diverse designers presented. This unique volume will also prompt readers to explore for themselves whether technology is little more than a tool to make production easier or faster or whether it will forever change the practice of graphic design."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Design Elements written by Timothy Samara and published by Rockport Publishers. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The graphic design equivalent to Strunk & White's The Elements of Style This book is simply the most compact and lucid handbook available outlining the basic principles of layout, typography, color usage, and space. Being a creative designer is often about coming up with unique design solutions. Unfortunately, when the basic rules of design are ignored in an effort to be distinctive, design becomes useless. In language, a departure from the rules is only appreciated as great literature if recognition of the rules underlies the text. Graphic design is a "visual language," and brilliance is recognized in designers whose work seems to break all the rules, yet communicates its messages clearly. This book is a fun and accessible handbook that presents the fundamentals of design in lists, tips, brief text, and examples. Chapters include Graphic Design: What It Is; What Are They and What Do They Do?; 20 Basic Rules of Good Design; Form and Space-The Basics; Color Fundamentals; Choosing and Using Type; The World of Imagery; Putting it All Together?Essential Layout Concepts; The Right Design Choices: 20 Reminders for Working Designers; and Breaking the Rules: When and Why to Challenge all the Rules of this Book.

Book excerpt: One of the seminal texts of graphic design, Paul Rand's Thoughts on Design is now available for the first time since the 1970s. Writing at the height of his career, Rand articulated in his slender volume the pioneering vision that all design should seamlessly integrate form and function. This facsimile edition preserves Rand's original 1947 essay with the adjustments he made to its text and imagery for a revised printing in 1970, and adds only an informative and inspiring new foreword by design luminary Michael Bierut. As relevant today as it was when first published, this classic treatise is an indispensable addition to the library of every designer.

This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working with type and image and the integration of these two elements to create persuasive and effective design pieces are the foundations of good graphic design. Yet, very little practical information exists for these tasks. This book changes all it. It gives designers the practical know-how to combine type and image for dynamic effect as well as to use them in contrast to create tension and meaning in design. Creating strong layouts is the most important as well as the most challenging of any project. This book inspires through excellence by exhibiting great design work then deconstructing the processes in simple visual terms. Type, Image, Message: Merging Pictures and Ideas looks at this respected art form while providing practical information that can be used by any designer wishing to hone the skills needed to merge type with images in an inspired manner.
