### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    One of the most influential books on design
  

*by D***I on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 March 2024*

This helped me understand graphic design and typography. Perhaps this sound like a very basic outcome I got, but let me tell you - this is a game changer. It helped understand the metaphysics behind composition of contrast, typefaces etc, the metaphysics man! I was able to apply knowledge straight away after reading, what normally would take practice! Excellent explanation, addressed to simple reader. Lots of books can take it as a benchmark on how to share knowledge in practical ways. Thank you Robin!!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great practical and directly useable advice for people with little or no formal design experience
  

*by W***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 March 2016*

This is a great book. I only wish I'd read it a long time ago. It's well written, structured and doesn't get bogged down in unnecessary detail. The author has been teaching this for years, so she knows a thing or two about good design. If you ever find yourself having to design anything really (flyers, birthday or greeting cards, photo books, presentations...) but don't have any formal training in design this book will help. It starts with basic principles: Contrast, Repetition, Alignment and Proximity and how they are applied to practically every design.  There are some examples of bad design and the suggestions the author proposed to fix the problems.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Trained my unprofessional eye exponentially
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 February 2018*

Love this book,clear, concise information on design, formatting,contrasts and colours. Everytime I see a printed ad now I'm assessing it and rebuild the ones in my head how I would redesign the not so good ones.Especially the colour section is easy to understand,I used to put the wrong colours together not knowing how they are related to make a design more effective. Really pleased with this book and keep revisiting for colour coordination.
