Information Design Workbook

Like previous books in the series, this new volume takes a methodical and comprehensive approach to conveying the fundamentals of avant-garde, innovative, information design by examining history, theory, criticism, technology and media, process, method, and practice.Opening with a very brief history, followed by an instructive breakdown of the discipline, readers get an intimate understanding of the complexities of crafting information design to effectively improve communication both functionally and aesthetically. The second half of the book contains a wide range of case studies from international design firms, so designers can see the techniques previously outlined in the first half of the book. The author critiques and explain why the design is successful in terms of formal quality and function.
