GO KIDDS GUIDE TO GRAPHIC DESIGN HC

From one of the most renowned graphic designers in the world, this oversized compendium celebrates, through the use of fonts, design, and color, what graphic design is, how it is a part of our everyday world, and how everyone makes decisions about design every day. Kids love to express themselves, and are designers by nature - whether making posters for school, deciding what to hang in their rooms, or creating personalized notebook covers. GO, by the award-winning graphic designer Chip Kidd, is a stunning introduction to the ways in which a designer communicates his or her ideas to the world. It's written and designed just for those curious kids (not to mention their savvy parents) who want to learn the secret of how to make things dynamic and interesting. Chip Kidd explains not just the elements of design - including form, line, color, scale, typography, and more - but most important, how to use those elements in creative ways. The book ends with ten projects, including an invitation to share your designs at GoTheBook.com.
