What you'll learn

Designers of all types; web, print and ux struggle with layout and composition at some point. By gaining a greater understanding of underlying principles of layout and composition, designers can create consistency, organization and visual interest across many different formats.

For decades, classically trained designers have put to use sets of guidelines to bring consistency and visual interest to their work.
