VISUAL GRAMMARDESIGN BRIEF SERIES

Christian Leborg

Visual Grammar is both a primer on visual language and a visual dictionary of the fundamental aspects of graphic design. Dealing with every imaginable visual concept—from abstractions such as dimension, format, and volume; to concrete objects such as form, size, color, and saturation; to activities such as repetition, mirroring, movement, and displacement; to relations such as symmetry, balance, diffusion, direction, and variation—this book is an indispensable reference for beginners and seasoned visual thinkers alike.
