About World of Books Ltd West Sussex, United Kingdom

Biblio member since 2007

In 2002, World of Books was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet, and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into a global pioneer, dedicated to helping people read more and waste less. Through the World of Books brand, customers can now buy and sell with us! We provide affordable, preloved books to book lovers all around the world, while also giving people the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet by trading in their unwanted books and media for cash. Through the B2B side of our business we've developed technology to help charities sell in bulk, meaning they can clear much needed floor space and make money for great causes at the same time. A new book will be sold once but their stories can be enjoyed by more than one owner. After all, a story doesn't change because it's been read before!

Reader reviews for A Visual Language: Elements of Design

From the publisher

This is a practical approach to the theory of visual language, takingthe basics of line, shape, tone, colour, texture, form, scale, spaceand light and discussing how to use them. The first half of the booktalks about how artists can use these elements to create their ownvisual language and how this can be applied to develop their own work.This text is illustrated with the ceramic work of David Cohen. Thesecond half of the book is divided into sections, each written by aprominent crafts person, expounding on how they have developed and usedtheir own visual language. These craftspeople are: Alison Kinnaird(glass engraver), Jack Cunningham (jeweller), John Creed (metalworker), Graham Stewart (silversmith) and Anna King (weaver).
