The Education of a graphic designer

Abstract

In this text, 25 designers and educators examine how graphic design is taught, learned and practised. In interviews with ten successful designers, including Milton Glaser, Jessica Helford, Paula Scher, Michael Bierut and David Carson, the author attempts to discover how they acquired their knowledge of design and how they have translated it into practice in their careers. The book presents model design-education curricula for both undergraduate and graduate levels.
