Introduction to Graphic Design

About this book

For a great foundation as a graphic design student, look no further than Aaris Sherin's Introduction to Graphic Design. Sherin will introduce you to the formal structure of graphic design, so you can understand and utilise the main techniques of your chosen profession, and learn how they apply to print and screen-based projects. Whether you need to conceptualise a new poster, develop an exciting advertisement, structure an app or create eye-catching signage, chapters can be read in any order you choose, depending on which area you wish to concentrate. Whatever your approach, you'll be encouraged to use critical thinking, visual exploration and understand the special relationship graphic designers have to creative problem solving. There are also chapters devoted to imagery, color, and typography, using a thematic approach to creative problem-solving. With over 500 images showing examples from international designers, helpful diagrams, highlighted key terms and concepts, Design in Action case studies, exercises and chapter-by-chapter Dos and Don'ts, Introduction to Graphic Design will give newcomers to graphic design the confidence to give visual form to concepts and ideas.

Conclusion
I 
would 
like 
to 
thank 
Lee 
Ripley 
and 
the 
rest 
of 
the 
team 
at 
Bloomsbury 
for 
their 
ongoing 
support 
and 
efforts 
to 
see 
Introduction 
to 
Graphic 
Design
through 
from 
proposal 
to 
publication. 
I 
am 
also 
grateful 
to 
the 
design 
studios 
and 
individuals 
who 
were 
willing 
to 
share 
examples 
of 
their 
work 
and 
of 
their 
process. 
These 
visual 
examples 
help 
bring 
the 
text 
to 
life. 
Brenno 
Pinto, 
Daniella 
Circelli 
and 
Mike 
LaGattuta 
produced 
the 
diagrams 
highlighting 
different 
principles 
of 
design. 
Their 
contribution 
has 
been 
invaluable 
and 
I 
am 
grateful 
for 
their 
patience 
and 
attention 
to 
detail 
as 
we 
worked 
to 
identify 
the 
best 
visual 
representations 
of 
various 
aspects 
of 
the 
design 
process. 
Finally, 
this 
book 
is 
dedicated 
to 
my 
students 
at 
St. 
John’s 
University. 
They 
provide 
endless 
inspiration 
and 
never 
fail 
to 
keep 
me 
humble.
