The Non-Designer’s Design & Type Books

My review

I read "The Non-designers Design Book" as an ebook on an iPad and I liked it so much that I had to buy the paper edition. Besides, I was so disappointed with the layout of the ebook.

This edition has two books: the above mentioned and the "Non-designer's Type Book", another gem to learn the basics of type.

The problem now is that I know more about design. I now clearly distinguish the flaws of reports, brochures, even maps.

It is a problem because we are surrounded with so much crappy design (my own work also) that eyes almost hurt sometimes.

The good side is that now I can try to improve my work and I can even try to influence other people.
