Visual design on the computer

In the course of the next five years, the computer will be in every design professional's studio and in every design classroom, and it will be the primary tool for all those now entering the field. Visual Design on the Computer is the first book expressly designed for those who are seeking to learn design on the computer. It approaches design from the computer perspective, and introduces a new visual language to tackle all basic design principles.

The book does not promote any particular computer system or software. Special features include guiding the self-learner to learn visual design on the computer in 15 sessions; helping the teacher to plan his/her own design course using the computer; providing innumerable ideas and tips to seasoned designers; explaining techniques and methods commonly used in computer graphics; covering draw and paint programs, as well as scanning, image-editing, and printing; and demonstrating available options with over 1,000 diagrams and examples.
