Be among the first graphic designers to shift toward sustainable, or green, design. A leader in the field, author Brian Dougherty explains how simple eco-friendly changes in the paper, printing, binding, shipping, packaging, and budgeting of products can add clarity, profitability, innovation, and even meaning to any design project. Illustrated case studies highlight the key steps in the process, and an extensive index of web resources, paper suppliers, and reading lists support the move toward going green. It isn’t easy going green...wait, yes, it is--when you’ve got Green Graphic Design to show the way!
