The Non-Designer's Design Book


by Robin Williams

We have consistently recommended this book year after year for anyone who wants to print a page for publication -- but who has not has formal training. For intro classes to design or layout, it's indispensable for getting good, solid, design advice, in an easy-to-read, easy-to-digest, manner. Robin is superb!
      Outlines the essentials of page layout, emphasizing the four concrete principles of design--proximity, alignment, repetition, and contrast--in an illustrated volume that features before and after examples of page design. Original. (All Users).
      If you want to learn more about design, but don't have the time or desire to actually study it, then this is the book for you. Paper.
