Title: The Definite Article...
Review: When Frank Atkinson wrote "Signpainting" in the early 1900's, he never thought it would become the 'bible' of the signwriting community. The same can be said about Mike Stevens' "Mastering Layout".Stevens clearly explains the proper use of such elements as negative space, color, and fonts in designing signage that has impact. Many of his own alphabets are included, along with dozens of layout drawings as examples to the text. Much of what makes a sign layout stand apart from others is laid out in an easy-to-understand, equational form.Mike Stevens may have died in 1989, but his thoughts on sign layout and execution are timeless.A must-read, a must-have.
