It is a hard-earned skill that, like all skills, improves with practice. Graphic Design Thinkingexplores a variety of techniques---from quick, seat-of-the-pants approaches to more formal research methods---for stimulating fresh thinking and solving design problems. Brainstorming techniques are grouped around the three main phases of the design process: defining problems, getting ideas, and creating form. Visual demonstrations and case studies show the design processes and solutions at work. Featuring best-selling author Ellen Lupton's hands-on, accessible approach to instructional writing, this most recent addition to the Design Briefs series will help designers create projects that satisfy clients, users, and themselves UR - https://login.ezproxy.pucpr.edu/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/pucpr-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3387597 UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/pucpr-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3387597 ER -
