Graphic Design Cookbook has proven to be one of the most valuable tools a designer can own. Anyone who works with layouts can refer to it for hundreds of template approaches to virtually any design task. Whether working on books, advertisements, company reports, or even wine labels, you can avoid the cumbersome process of shuffling through piles of reference works for "inspiration" with the at-a-glance help of Graphic Design Cookbook. As with a culinary cookbook, Graphic Design Cookbook can be opened to virtually any page for instant access to great ideas. Organized by graphic component-text systems, space structure, pictorial presentation, border devices, and more-the book offers at least eight treatments per page. This new edition-a classic resource-will prove priceless to a new generation of designers.
