Why read graphic design books

Graphic design is a life long pursuit. Thankfully, I am a life long learner who enjoys experimenting with the latest techniques. My best ideas come from studying published designs and reading graphic design books and magazines. I especially like “Before & After” magazine. I just discovered several books by Robin Williams. Photoshop magazine is a constant source of new techniques and practice for everyday applications.

After reading and experimenting with these ideas, analyze what you like or dislike. Collect your favorite ideas in a folder or pin them on Pinterest. This is great preplanning for your client’s next big project.

Put graphic design books and magazines on your wish list. Happy reading!
