A new addition to our best selling series, Design Briefs, Thinking with Type is a straightforward primer that presents practical information about typographic design that can be immediately applied within the context of design history and theory.
• It is divided into three sections - letter, text, grid - each accompanied by an essay explaining key concepts, and then a set of practical demonstrations illustrating that material.
• The lessons of Thinking with Type are applicable to typographic design wherever it is practiced: printed materials of all kinds, Web sites, television screens. A companion Web site, will provide examples of design on screen, and provide other information (lesson plans, exercises) for readers and teaching professionals.
• Thinking with Type is a state-of-the-art pedagogical tool, that will be essential reading for students, teachers, and anyone else who wishes to improve or brush on their design skills.
"A lovely book about a fascinating subject! – This was recommended by a designer friend of mine as a resource for studying design principles and it has turned out to be a delightful book in and of itself. It's well-written and beautifully, thoughtfully designed. The author outlines and then explores the significant role type plays in design. There's a fascinating lexicon of select type faces and fonts. Lot's of ideas, tips and reasons why things work the way they do in design. I bought this as a way to learn about the practical deployment of type in design. I like it because it is so much more."
"Recommended for everyone who produces printed matter – including websites. – I have been producing magazines, flyers, posters and other printed material for many years, but even so I have learned a great deal from this beautifully set out and written book, and I recommend it to anybody who produces printed matter. Of course these design principles also apply to designing websites, although these are not mentioned in the addition I have.
