Go Buy it and Read It, and Re Read it and Re Read it till you understand design completely The BEST book on Design out There . 2009-03-16 Rating 5.

This is a fun book to flip through An enjoyable read. It does contain information that isn't readily available online, so it's useful as a reference as well, though I'm not sure how often you'll feel the need to invoke things like the "Most Average Facial Appearance Effect" for your work (unless your work is in research psychology)2009-03-11 Rating 4. I would recommend this as an entertaining and modestly informative design book, but it's not essential.

This is a good overall book Worked great for college class. It was required for my college class2009-02-14 Rating 3. I have enjoyed learning about all different ways to present written information.

This book is never far from my reach Designer must have - This book is never far from my reach. I get asked lots of basic design questions to which I'd like to provide accurate answers2008-12-31 Rating 5. When I'm at a loss for how to explain a design principle, I just reach for this handy guide. I have a Bachelors degree in fine art, so flipping through this book is like a college refresher course. If you're new to design or want to learn the basics, this book is an excellent place to start. It's also worth keeping handy as a reference.



The great thing about this book is that each principle is explained as its own short, illustrated chapter. Each chapter is a two-page spread so you can quickly learn new principles. The illustrations are simple and assist in making each principle clear and easy to understand. There are 100 principles (or chapters), so there is very little that's not covered in the book.

No matter what field you're in, if you are a designer this book is for you Must have book for any designer.. The book's title says it all, this is information that is helpful no matter what kind of design you're doing2008-11-19 Rating 5. It explains how people absorb information and ways a design can be improved to aid in this.



The book is well layed out and easy to get into just one topic without having to read everything. Great for reference and education. A beautiful hardcover book. Whether you design products, webpages, software systems or entire buildings this one is for you.

Whether a marketing campaign or a museum exhibit, a video game or a complex control system, the design we see is the culmination of many concepts and practices brought together from a variety of disciplines Because no one can be an expert on everything, designers have always had to scramble to find the information and know-how required to make a design work until now.

Universal Principles of Design is the first comprehensive, cross-disciplinary encyclopedia of design
