The reader will gain an understanding and appreciation of layout, through
the subject being tackled from multiple aspects. The book will provide a historical overview of layout, from early scribes through to contemporary layout, and will then guide the reader to an understanding of layout from a systematic approach and exploration of key theoretical principles, through to the practical application of layout, with a presentation of an inspirational selection of layout design.
As with all AVA Academia titles, The Layout Book, will be highly visual, and will prove to be invaluable for all students of design studies, and practising design professionals eager to gain a better understanding, and appreciation of layout design.
