Have you ever dreamed of becoming a fashion designer, website designer, or architect? Paintbox Press is pleased to introduce a new series of books that introduces kids to The World of Design.
What is design? Is it different from art? How does it work? Readers will discover basic elements of visual communication that are the building blocks of many different types of design. Subsequent titles focus on a specific design discipline such as fashion, graphic design, architecture, or environmental design. Each title contains:
A foreword written by a leader in contemporary design thinking
Engaging content rich in both text and images
A timeline of design highlighting important events and discoveries
Profiles of designers who have helped shape the visual world as we know it today
Tips on setting up a mini design studio: how to pursue your interest in design
An interactive project designed to encourage kids to unleash their own creativity
Although geared to young people, the series will also interest adults who may enjoy the opportunity to become familiar with the history, process, (and fun!) of design.
