amazing book all of you guys should get it if you dont already own it.

>>294362
best book i bought this year by far. Don't let it's size or price put you off, it's biblical. Along with that I'd recommend The Elements of typographic style. Currently reading that, it's hard at first but once you've become savvy with type terms you'll do fine. Making and breaking the grid is by far the 'worst' book i got.

>drew de soto - know your onions

dont bother dude, know your onions sucks. Go for "design as art - bruno munari", "graphic design manual - armin hofmann" and "grid systems in graphic design - josef muller-brockmann"

Universal Principles of Design, I think anybody living in this contemporary world can benefit from reading it.
