The Web Designer's Roadmap

by Giovanni DiFeterici

Digital Creativity is a full-color book about the creative process and the underlying principles that govern that process.

While other books cover the nuts 'n' bolts of how to design the elements that make up websites, this book outlines how effective designers go about their work, illustrating the complete creative process from start to finish.

As well as how-to content, the book draws on interviews with a host of well-known design gurus, including Steve Krug, Donald Norman, Ethan Marcotte, Jason Santa Maria.

A non-academic book, this is a fun and easy read packed with practical information.

Although web technologies change rapidly, this book gives essential, and time to time philosophical, insight about the medium and the process that should be used by web professionals. Yet again, it feels unfinished. You can easily find all the knowledge in it and more on a quick Google search.

This was a mesmerising non fiction book! It covered all the aspects of the innovative web designing process. It included all steps right from the initial inspiration to the final product! This nonfiction book also illuminates the significance of creativity and aesthetics. Overall , a good read!

Practical and useful guide to the development of design needed for websites. Covers art and design principles as well as responsive design for different sizes of screens. Good examples of wireframes.

Troppo generico e a volte noioso (la parte storica sul design l'ho trovata prolissa e inutile). Avrei preferito pi�� esempi concreti e meno discorsi campati in aria.

The process outlined in here is quite good and the examples are useful as well.
