Renée Stevens

I am not a designer, so I assume that this book is for people like me, and those starting in the world of graphic design.

From my perspective, I would say that this is an excellent book.

Renee has an excellent premise: if appropriately used, good design can solve problems. Her approach is very systematic. There are specific topics that I found particularly useful. For instance, the whole topic on fonts has helped my clarify my approach to how I would like to present myself in the world of self-publishing.

I did mention that her approach is systematic. This approach is helpful for anyone who wants to go back and look up specific topics.

Overall, the book has given me a better appreciation of the world of design, and all that it encompasses.

I recommend this book to people in the creative field. I also recommend this to corporate executives who are engaged in branding, communication, or anyone who has to design a layout (even a warehouse map!)

Her chapter on how data can be presented visually is excellent. This is one chapter I will refer back to in the future.… (plus d'informations)
