Hot off the presses, I thought I'd share with you the cover for my next book, Success by Design: The Essential Business Reference for Designers.*
I'm currently knee-deep in designing the 325-page book, from the cover (which you can see above) to the interior illustrations and typesetting the content.
As I get closer to completing the layout, I'll start sharing some sneak peeks into the content, as well as the process I've been using for bringing it all together. While the cover does share some DNA with Grace Ring's awesome art direction for Creative Workshop, the interior will balance crisp, informational charts and graphs with some tongue-in-cheek design humor that you've seen on this blog over the past few years.
The book will be out in November 2012 from HOW Books (10 months from now) and I'll let you know when it goes on pre-sale through the usual suspects, like Amazon.com and MyDesignShop.com.
P.S. If you're interested in being a final reader for the book when we complete layout and go into final proofreading, drop me a line at david at changeorderblog.com. Those who help me proof the final layout will be thanked graciously in the foreword to the book and get a free signed copy when it comes out.
* In previous posts, I'd been calling this book Design Business from A to Z, but that was a placeholder name through the writing process… this is the final title for the book.)
