Un *nouveau* programme pour le design graphique is a do-it-yourself manual that combines pragmatism and experimentation, drawing on pedagogical models from the second half of the 20th century to convey the fundamental principles of contemporary design. Taking three courses (“Typography”, “Gestalt” and “Interface”) originally developed for art students, David Reinfurt offers readers of all disciplines a general and detailed introduction to graphic design and visual literacy.
From Benjamin Franklin to Bruno Munari, via Moholy-Nagy, Muriel Cooper and the Macintosh computer, this book is a practical guide for designers seeking to understand and shape the increasingly complex world of information and design.
