Visual Design Basics provides tips for creating effective visual designs that grab attention and convey messages clearly. It introduces Mr. Vector and Miss Raster as key design principles, and emphasizes simplicity, clarity and reducing clutter. The purpose is to create "Aha!" moments and provoke thought while evoking emotion. This is achieved by leading the eye with techniques like contrast, proper sizing of images, and following design best practices for things like aspect ratios, color, and typography. Real learning happens through a combination of training, feedback, observation and real-world experience over time. The presentation concludes by thanking the audience.

This document discusses various techniques for visual thinking, brainstorming, planning, learning, and collaborating using graphic recording and sketchnotes. It provides examples of graphic recordings done at conferences and events, and emphasizes that sketchnotes can be done by anyone, not just artists. Key aspects of visual note-taking discussed include using simple shapes, templates, timelines, and conceptual metaphors to aid memory and learning.
This document provides an introduction to visual design concepts. It discusses key visual design tools like color, texture, images, and typography. It also outlines design processes, including observing and collecting inspiration, brainstorming and sketching ideas, editing and refining, and producing the final design. The document emphasizes that design brings order, solves problems, and creates empathy through visually telling stories. It encourages building design skills through activities like observing art, taking photos, sketching, and learning typography fundamentals.
Research shows that we think like we speak. The first step in Visual Design Thinking, then, is learning visual language. Come learn Glyph™, a language that balances verbal and visual elements to improve the way you learn, remember, create, and communicate. After this 2.5 hour workshop, you will be bursting through that “I can’t draw” trap and stepping into your new role as a standout visual problem solver.
Come join Stanford’s Alli McKee for a workshop that will build your creative confidence and amplify your communication. With extensive experience in both business (Bain & Company + Stanford GSB) and design (IDEO.org + Stanford d.school), Alli has come from Silicon Valley to bring you the best of both worlds to deliver a unique experience that is challenging, fun, and fulfilling.
