First Response to the Book

     First of all, the book just got to my hands today. By looking through the pages of the book I got interested in some of the titles and the pics. It seems like a really interesting literature. Then after a few minutes of just looking through it I started reading. By reading the preface I learned two things right away. The book is not just about graphic design, but is about all the different types of design. Also, the book is divided in sections corresponding to the design process. The writer of the book, Karl Aspelund, believes that teaching design requires a guidebook. While teaching design the writer noticed that books in this subject were missing something. The process from inspiration to production was never in other books. In his book we are going to learn the design process, as is divided in sections. I like that he says how the book was made. He wrote it, but it had collaboration of students and teachers. It seems that he put all his knowledge and heart into the book. He wanted to create a book that students, graduates or any designer could use. I hope that at the end of it I get lots of knowledge from it and learn to use the design process.
