Description

How well do you write? Written and oral communication play a vital role in advancing the careers of design professionals (and students), yet few design schools offer training, and few resources exist to help designers improve their writing skills.

Now in its second edition updated and expanded to address such issues as email etiquette and web-based marketing, communication, and job searches the best-selling Writing for Design Professionals is the standard guide for mastering the complexities of effective writing in professional practice.

Stephen A. Kliment, former editor in chief of Architectural Record, explains the principles of clear writing, from the formal letter to a prospective client to precison and clarity in descriptive reports. Dozens of sample letters, proposals, brochures, reports, book reviews, oral presentations, staff communications and more all drawn from the world of practice, and in both print and electronic formats guide readers through the ins and outs of good practical writing. Specific examples tend to be American, but the need for clear writing is universal.
