Creative web design requires knowledge from across the design and technical realms, and it can seem like a daunting task working out where to get started.

This book takes you through all you need to know about designing for the web and for digital spaces, from initial concepts and client needs, through layout and typography to basic coding, e-commerce and working with different platforms.

A companion website provides step-by-step tutorial videos, HTML/CSS styling tips and links to useful resources to really help you get to grips with all the aspects of web design.

Interviews with international designers and critical commentaries looking at best practice and theoretical considerations are included throughout the volume, offering inspiration and insight into how well-known designers have approached their own web-based projects.

Written for graphic designers, this book delivers more than just an instruction manual—it provides a complete overview of designing for the web.
