Event Info:
Functional Forms Design: Putting Pragmatism Before Aestheticism
Presented by Eric Spears
For much of its history, the field of graphic design has established
and forwarded the notion that beauty is the primary goal of design.
While aesthetic considerations make sense for a vast majority of design
projects, the design of forms and other business communications requires
more than just an artistic eye for businesses to communicate effectively
with their employees and clients. This live web seminar explores the
principles of pragmatic forms design that, when applied correctly,
help designers to strike a balance between the pragmatic and the aesthetic.
Eric Spears has over 10 years' experience in forms, visual communication
and design in the government, nonprofit, and private sectors. His
work has received awards from the International Association of Business
Communicators, the Society for Technical Communication, and Writing
that Works (awards for Publication Excellence). Mr. Spears has provided
design solutions for diverse clients, such as the US Federal Trade
Commission, the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, and
the Internal Revenue Service. In addition to his design work, Mr.
Spears has experience in conducting forms-design training, literature
reviews, heuristic analyses, and large- and small-scale consumer testing.
