Overview
āDesign is all around you. And whether you realize it or not, you are already a designer. InĀ Go, renowned graphic designer Chip KiddĀ explains not just the elements of design, including form, line, color, scale, typography, and more, but most important, how to use those elements in creative ways. Like putting the word āgoā on a stop sign,Ā GoĀ is all about shaking things upāand kids love its playful spirit and belief that the world looks better when you look at it differently. Kidd writes about scale: When a picture looks good small, donāt stop thereāsee how it looks when itāsĀ reallyĀ small. OrĀ really big. He explains the difference between vertical lines and horizontal lines. The effect of cropping a picture to make it beautifulāor, cropping it even more to make it mysterious and compelling. How different colors signify different moods. The art of typography, including serifs and sans serifs, kerning and leading.Ā The book ends with ten hands-on design projects for kids.
āAn excellent introduction to graphic design through [the authorās] own excellent work. Anyone interested in the subject, including most practitioners, will find it delightful.āāMilton Glaser
