Aprašymas

As everyday tasks grow more confusing, and as social and global problems grow more complex, the information designer's role in bringing clarity has reached a new level of importance. In order to have a positive impact, they must go beyond conventional approaches to uncover real needs, make insightful connections, and develop effective solutions. Information Design Unbound provides a clear, engaging introduction to the field, and prepares students to be strategic thinkers and visual problem solvers who can confidently make sense in a changing world.

Sheila Pontis and Michael Babwahsingh present a holistic view of information design, synthesizing decades of research, cross-disciplinary knowledge, and emerging practices. The book opens by laying a foundation in the field, first painting the bigger picture of what it is and how it originated, before explaining the scientific and cultural dimensions of how people perceive and understand visual information. Transitioning from context to practice, a discussion of the various roles information designers play and how they work sets the stage for the information design process. Chapters then delve into each step of the process, from problem definition to design and evaluation. The final section of the book puts everything together, with detailed project walk-throughs in areas such as icon design, visual explanations, wayfinding, websites and apps.

Written and designed with students' needs in mind, this book brings information design fundamentals to life: exercises allow students to put lessons directly into practice, case studies demonstrate how information designers think and work, and generous illustrations clarify concepts in a visually engaging way.

Information Design Unbound helps beginning designers build the mindset and skillset to navigate visual communication challenges wherever they may arise.
