Introduction to the basics of graphic design with backgrounds, explanations, guidelines for all thematized aspects and focus on the grid as the most important element.
In visual communication, contents are arranged, organized, and presented. Design laws and principles that are inherent to every medium ensure that from a distance a novel looks like a novel, an art catalogue like an art catalogue, and a magazine like a magazine. This publication, awarded with the TDC New York "Certificate of Typographic Excellence", offers a compact mix of explanations, practical tips, and background information on the topic. At its centre is the grid as the most important design principle, whose function and application are thoroughly discussed. The grid allows a consolidated approach to a structured design like a blueprint that supports not only faster and easier reading but also better comprehension of information. In a second part, the author discusses the design process itself with answers to seemingly simple questions of what to observe when designing and the sequence of steps. Another chapter focuses on relevant theoretical aspects such as how method and intuition are correlated. The final section contains an extensive glossary.
