Shape and Typography: Foundations of Web Design Communication Support
"Content is king", they say. But they also say "presentation is everything". You've got all your database stuff working, your content is written, edited, proofed .. and yet, somehow, the web page lacks that certain something. Linda helps you add that something special by guiding you through the design considerations of shape and typography - that's the shape of the paragraphs and images, and the shape of the actual letters themselves to lift your great content into the realm of the brilliant.
Linda Goin
Linda Goin carries an A.A. in graphic design, a B.F.A. in visual communications with a minor in business and marketing and an M.A. in American History with a minor in the Reformation. While the latter degree doesn't seem to fit with the first two educational experiences, Linda used her 25-year design expertise on archaeological digs and in the study of material culture. Now she uses her education and experiences in social media experiments.
Accolades for her work include fifteen first-place Colorado Press Association awards, numerous fine art and graphic design awards, and interviews about content development with The Wall St. Journal, Chicago Tribune, Psychology Today, and L.A. Times.
