Do you want to learn Graphic Design in Amsterdam but have NO EXPERIENCE? I can help you! With this Design tutoring lessons you will learn the Fundamentals of Graphic Design. We will be covering the fundamentals of IMAGEMAKING, TYPOGRAPHY, SHAPE and COLOR and COMPOSITION. I believe that the best way to learn about graphic design is to work HANDS-ON, learn and practice to develop your design skills.

Fundamentals of Typography We are going to look at typographic terminology and the basic rules for creating typography. I'll show you a range of tips and techniques for working with type, in both a functional and expressive manner, and you'll find out about the process involved in making and controlling typography. Fundamentals of Shape and Color We are going to look at how designers work with shape and color as their fundamental building blocks. You'll learn about visual contrast, color, rhythm and pattern in design. I'll be showing you the process involved in making an abstract design from shapes, and how to use that element to create a repeating pattern design. Fundamentals of Composition We are going to look at how designers work with visual contrasts, cropping, hierarchy and direction in single images and complex compositions. You'll find out how to control and use scale, weight, direction, texture, and space in a composition, and how to compose work that ranges from the complex to the minimal.
