A Premium Website, available separately, offers students bonus images, interviews with artists featured in the text, additional projects, studio techniques and research links.. Keeping pace with rapid changes in the field of design, while maintaining a consistently high academic quality, the text emphasizes design structure, visual perception and digital design, with a wide range of visuals from throughout design history, as well as the latest contemporary illustrations
