Principles and Elements of Web Design
Tweet“So far we have looked at the fundamentals of design in a rather abstract way, discussing and illustrating the concepts using simple shapes and forms. This is an excellent way to introduce the principles and elements of design, but does not bridge the gap between theory and practice. In this article we will be reviewing many of the topics previously covered, but we will be doing so using actual Web sites so that we can see how everything we have been talking about fits together.”
Digital Web Magazine has a wide-ranging set of articles that are great for business people (and designers) who want a quick overview of issues related to interface design. The articles include lots of illustrations and reads quickly.
