Layout is the fundamental element underlying any design project, of any kind.So when you're undertaking a new project, the first thing you'll need to decide on is your layout. OK. But what if you aren't inspired. Now what? Pick up this book, where you will find 400 different layouts (grouped into four advertising, editorial, covers and brochures). Now, you can flip through the book and see something you like. You don't have to copy it. In fact, you probably won't. But you'll see an idea, and then you'll think of a way to modify that design . . . and soon you have your fresh layout. That's what this book is about. Bonus each page features call-out notes of easily understandable comments to quickly convey the good elements of the depicted layout.

Reading this in 2017 makes me appreciate how far we've come since early 2000s in the field of graphic design.

This book inhabits my desk at work. When I lose my luster for ad design, I take a few minutes to thumb through the pages to refresh my creative juices.
Love the use of sticky notes to illustrate the elements that work in the designs.
