Designs that are discarded, designs that pass - Editorial Design
Description
Book Introduction
Why wasn't my design chosen?
From the pitfalls of discarded designs to the core principles of successful designs.
〉 Design Theory: Understand the concept clearly through various editorial design cases.
〉 Design Commentary: Presenting the strategy and formula of editorial design with clear standards and principles.
〉 AI Practical Design: A Guide to AI Utilization Applicable in Real-World Practices
What is the difference between a design that is chosen from among countless drafts and a design that is discarded after each revision?
This book closely dissects the client selection criteria that cannot be resolved solely through a designer's intuition, and presents strategies and formulas for editorial design to survive in the real world.
If you're a designer who wants to supplement what your senses alone lack with strategy, this book will offer you a new direction.
Through this book, readers will gain a concrete and intuitive understanding of what makes clients "like" a design, what designers should persuade and what they should avoid, and what core elements are commonly hidden in designs that pass despite repeated rejections.
This book is especially recommended for editorial designers who have difficulty communicating with clients in practice, designers who have experienced repeating drafts that were not selected despite repeated feedback, designers who want to systematically learn design strategies that are more persuasive than the senses, and all designers who are tired of hearing, “That’s great, but can I see another one?” every time.
Design theory
Visually learn the principles of grids, colors, fonts, and layout through various editing examples, and organize them so that they can be flexibly applied to actual work.
Design Commentary
Identify common issues with rejected designs and strategically organize compelling layout flow and visual logic to achieve success.
AI Practical Design
We introduce the application of AI design tools that can be used in real-world settings, providing an efficient method to reduce repetitive work and improve the completeness of design plans.
Designs that are discarded (NO) / Designs that are accepted (YES)
It is designed to clearly compare the differences before and after the design, and to provide a quick overview of the client's selection criteria and passing factors, focusing on the points of modification.
