Synopsis
365 daily design mantras for both graphic design professionals and the growing group of non-designers who want some guidance., The perfect book for the ever-growing group of non-designers who want some graphic design guidance. Ask any graphic designer the world over about their preferred approach to setting type, choosing a colour, or beginning a new layout, and you will rarely get exactly the same answer twice. Every creative has their own individual approach, or more importantly their own combinations of the thousands of techniques one can apply when planning a new design project. But there are some dos and don'ts that always figure strongly in any heated debate about what one should or should not accept as the right way to create the best graphic design. Packed with practical advice but presented in a light-hearted fashion, Graphic Design Rules is the perfect book for the ever-growing group of non-designers who want some graphic design guidance. And for more experienced designers, individual entries will either bring forth knowing nods of agreement or hoots of derision, depending on whether or not the reader loves or hates hyphenation, has a pathological fear of beige, or thinks that baseline grids are boring. In the style of a classical almanac, 365 entries combine a specific rule with a commentary from a variety of experienced designers from all fields of the graphic design industry. Grouped into six colour-coded chapters - typography, colour, layout, imagery, production, and creative thinking - the reader can either dip in at random or use the book as the source of a daily lesson in how to produce great graphic design., 365 daily design mantras from four leading industry experts, providing you with valuable design dos and don'ts for every day of year. Packed with practical advice presented in a fun, lighthearted fashion, this is the perfect book for the ever-growing group of non-designers who want some graphic design guidance. And for more experienced designers, individual entries will either bring forth knowing nods of agreement or hoots of derision, depending on whether or not the reader loves or hates hyphenation, has a pathological fear of beige, or thinks that baseline grids are boring.

    THE BEST EBAY PURCHASE I'VE EVER HAD SHIPPING: Ridiculously fast! Received product just three days after ordering! PACKAGING: Expertly packaged! Eight books were bagged into two bundles, then the sealed bags were each wrapped in reusable heavy-duty bubble wrap, and those bundles were packed in a box with loose wrap! QUALITY: These books were better than as described, their condition surpassing those I already had in the series! VALUE: Incredible pricing! A+ Highest possible recommendation!

    I was happy to find this rare and out-of-print book on eBay. The book is all about the history of my hometown. It's condition is exactly as described/shown in photos. It was well-packaged and arrived in perfect condition. It was shipped promptly and arrived quickly via the USPS w/ tracking number. Very positive buying experience with this highly rated seller, whom I would definitely buy from again, and am happy to recommend to other buyers.

    Received in excellent condition. Looks unused. Well wrapped and protected. This is a great seller. I am very pleased. I have no idea how overseas shipping is worked out—but it’s expensive. I don’t think it’s the seller[s fault.
