内容简介
As the Web evolves to incorporate new standards and the latest browsers offer new possibilities for creative design, the art of creating Web sites is also changing. Few Web designers are experienced programmers, and as a result, working with semantic markup and CSS
can create roadblocks to achieving truly beautiful designs using all the resources available. Add to this the pressures of presenting
exceptional design to clients and employers, without compromising efficient workflow, and the challenge deepens for those working
in a fast-paced environment. As someone who understands these complexities firsthand, author and designer Andy Clarke offers visual
designers a progressive approach to creating artistic, usable, and accessible sites using transcendent CSS.
In this groundbreaking book, you’ll discover how to implement highly original designs through visual demonstrations of the creative
possibilities using markup and CSS. You’ll learn to use a new design workflow, build prototypes that work well for designers and all team
members, use grids effectively, visualize markup, and discover every phase of the transcendent design process, from working with the
latest browsers to incorporating CSS3 to collaborating with team members effectively, and much more.

• Uses a visual approach to help you learn coding techniques
• Includes numerous examples of world-class Web sites, photography, and other inspirations that give designers ideas for visualizing their code
