Design Thinking for Visual Communication
Bloomsbury Visual Arts (Verlag)
978-1-350-10622-2 (ISBN)
Now in its second edition, the highly popular Design Thinking for Visual Communication identifies methods and thought processes used by designers in order to start the process that eventually leads to a finished piece of work. Step-by-step guidance for each part of the process is highlighted by real-life case studies, enabling the student to see teaching in practice. This focus on ideas and methods eschews an abstract, academic approach in favour of a useable approach to design as a problem-solving activity.
The new edition now includes contributions from a broader international range of design practices and adds depth to existing case studies by looking in greater detail at some of the processes used.
Gavin Ambrose teaches at Brighton University, UK. He is a graphic designer, and author and designer of books on branding, packaging, and editorial design. Paul Harris is a freelance writer and journalist who specalises in design. He is the co-author of numerous books with Gavin Ambrose.
