Internet and email have changed the way today’s designers must view traditional letterheads, which, to the surprise of some industry experts, have become more important than ever. As more and more business is being done electronically, an even greater emphasis must be placed on letterhead, business cards, and folder design to ensure that they are in tune with the look and feel of a company’s website. This can get tricky, as creating a design that looks good in print (300 dpi) as well as on the web (72 dpi) is not always the easiest task to accomplish. But in Clio award–winning designer David E. Carter’s comprehensive resource, readers will discover how to create stunning designs and letterheads that work well on both the printed and the digital page.
The Big Book of Designs for Letterheads and Web Sites displays literally hundreds of examples that help designers recognize the parameters of print and web letterhead design, where they work together seamlessly, and where some creative integration must be done. This valuable resource makes it clear that the web revolution has not rendered print communications obsolete but has, in effect, made the design and letterhead on print communications even more important when conveying a company’s message and keeping it consistent.
