## Description

Ellen Lupton, award-winning author of Thinking with Type and How Posters Work , demonstrates how storytelling shapes great design Good design, like good storytelling, brings ideas to life. The latest book from award-winning writer Ellen Lupton is a playbook for creative thinking, showing designers how to use storytelling techniques to create satisfying graphics, products, services and experiences. Whether crafting a digital app or a data-rich publication, designers invite people to enter a scene and explore what’s there. An intriguing logo, page layout or retail space uses line, shape and form to lead users on dynamic journeys. Design Is Storytelling explores the psychology of visual perception from a narrative point of view. Presenting dozens of tools and concepts in a lively, visual manner, this book will help any designer amplify the narrative power of their work. Use this book to stir emotions, build empathy, articulate values and convey action; to construct narrative arcs and create paths through space; integrate form and language; evaluate a project’s storytelling power; and to write and deliver strong narratives.

Review: A Helpful Little Book - I am teaching myself graphic design. There are a lot of books that focus on graphic design principles, but this book has a unique spin that I find very helpful - considering design as a form of storytelling. It helped me view concepts I had already seen multiple times in other books and online classes in a completely different way. The author's way of writing, the design of the book, and the visuals all make each idea crystal clear and easy to digest and retain. A fun read indeed!
Review: Great copy of paperback - The graphics are great, printed like magazine. Haven’t read it fully. Book cosmetic is fine no scratches, printed well. Haven’t read it, will update review after fully reading.

The graphics are great, printed like magazine. Haven’t read it fully. Book cosmetic is fine no scratches, printed well. Haven’t read it, will update review after fully reading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book but NSFW
*by A***E on November 19, 2025*

There are a lot of cool pictures - but don’t make my mistake and bring it to your work desk - a few of the examples are definitely not safe for Work!
