Reviews / Votes
"Think of Hello Web Design as a book of cheat codes. It's short, to the point, and tells you everything you need to know to be a perfectly competent web designer." (from the foreword)-Jeremy Keith, Author of Resilient Web Design and cofounder of Clearleft
"A concise yet information-packed book . . . help[s] you better understand the basics of design and give you the gist you need to be a better designer immediately."
-Michael Wong, The Designership, A Best Book Resource For Designers
"It effectively teaches fundamental design skills to entrepeneurs, developers, and the rest of us."
-Startups for the Rest of Us
"The value of the knowledge I took away from my time with it cannot be overstated . . . Hello Web Design is a quick read coming in at about 140 pages and I highly recommend it. The book retails for about 25 dollars and is well worth the price. Its definitely changed my approach on how to handle layouts and designs for my future projects."
-Ryan's Coding Journey Blog
