Graphic Design Fundamentals: An Introduction & Workbook for Beginners (Graphic Design Fundamentals, Tutorials, Lessons & More)

I've been a graphic designer for 17 years! I've worked high profile jobs in the industry, most recently the Philadelphia Eagles as a Lead Designer for the past 10 years. This year I decided to turn a new leaf and teach design to high school students. I was really struggling finding a resource that was energetic, relatable, and just easy to follow ... then I stumbled upon Kris' book! I skimmed it and purchased on Amazon. After reading through, I found her resources on Teachers Pay Teachers as well and I honestly have nothing but positive reviews here. Kris breaks design down into the easiest format, as a first time educator she made my life easier this year and I am forever grateful. She also has some amazing design chops, as a female designer for Disney. So, I knew I was in good company when I found her products and I saw her work. I highly recommend this book, you and your students will love it!

As a graphic designer, I find reference books crucial in my workflow as they allow me to consult basic concepts that I may overlook despite my experience. Their value lies in providing me with a reliable and comprehensive source of information that I can refer to whenever I need to refresh my memory. I highly recommend that all designers make reference books a part of their toolkit — using this or others.

This was a gift for a friend and they loved it.

I am a graphic designer and taught design for twenty years. This book is a very thorough introduction to the fundamentals of graphic design. The writing is clear and friendly, and the illustrations demonstrate the concepts well. This is a great resource for the novice graphic designer. I highly recommend this book.

Thanks for this book! it was a great read and very informative. Appreciate the bonus materials at the end! A must read.

Great little book. Very simple and instructional. I have a ton of experience with the topic but never want to pretend like I can’t learn more. Kris made a couple points that shined a light on somethings that I hadn’t seen from her or respective before so that’s always fun. Enjoy!

I excepted more. Not that it’s not a good book I just expected more than a coloring book quality paperback book for $25. VERY basic knowledge. Great for a high school student looking to get into graphic design.

Easy to understand and shares so many important techniques that I needed to learn as a beginner in graphic design. Love this handy book!!

Easily digestible information. All relevant and easy to read. Plainly laid out with great visual examples. Will be following your author journey to enjoy more books. Thank you.

Relativamente no era lo que esperaba, pero es un libro completo para llevarlo a la par de otros cursos y actividades. Buen resumen de los conceptos mas importantes del diseño.

The package was only a plastic bag with no bubble wrap or anything of the sort, seeing the they sent it abroad, so the book arrived somewhat dirty and a little crumpled. But strangest thing is that the book starts at page 9, the heading says it's Chapter 3, you can see it on the video, so I don't know whether it's a print mistake or everyone else's got the same problm

this book has lots of good information , i will suggest if you are after fundamental and important information on graphic design then get this book unfortunately arrived damaged and since the order from amazon global it has to send back and there is no replacement took them 3 week to deliver and damaged!
