Visual Design-Build with confidence

Speaker(s): Jennifer Smith

Understanding design from a historical perspective can help you build websites with more confidence and less distraction.

In this session, we will discover how the influence of Bauhaus and International Typographic Style is reflected in modern website design and why the past plays an important role in the presentation of information.

We will also learn principles of design established in the early 1900’s that are even more relevant today, as well as find out how to take advantage of proportion, type hierarchy, and grids to help you confidently build a successful website.
