Graphic Design Play Book: An Exploration of Visual Thinking (Logo, Typography, Website, Poster, Web, and Creative Design)

I liked the book because it brings you to think through the exercises in there. I'd recommend the book.

I love this book a lot! I’m starting my journey towards finding a tattoo apprenticeship, and while I have a solid art degree and YEARS of art practice, I have very little formal training in design. The book seems like a playbook — it is. But it’s really a mind tease and you are constantly learning even though it just feels like fun. I highly recommend it for whatever reason you may have!

The design of this book is amazing and I love the colors. It's a great short book to help spark some creativity. I would recommend adding this to your collection if you are a designer!

I got this book for my daughter and It was not what I expected but found it interesting and creative.This book found a fun way to mesh both ideas and develop design skills at the same time. This book is a "Play book" on design. I think it is a great way to visually think about design and to help young minds in the tech world think about how to be visually creative off of the computer. I think this book is a great learning tool.

This is a great book for design students. It gets them thinking and practicing. My class enjoyed the type challenges.

I was given this book for Christmas and it was more than I wanted. It was creative and full of knowledge. This is a perfect graphic design book for graphic designers and Students. People who are not designers don’t understand this book. But if you know someone who is a graphic design, GET IT!! There is so much cool inspiration!

Maybe I misread the description. The title 'play book' made me think I was going to see examples of common themes used in graphic design. Strategies, or 'plays' to accomplish different outcomes.Nope. It's an activity book for adults. And while it teaches some elements of graphic design while doing. It offers a limited scope of variety. Most of the activities riff off of the cover, and follow those colors and themes.It's just Not the graphic design 'play book' I was hoping for.

This was an AIGA recommended book and I can’t put it down. So far with this playbook I created a monogram in the style of the Vienna succession and plan on trying the other projects. However the book is so collectible that I don’t want to draw in it or use the samples. Enjoy.
