## Content

### Introduction

Hello! I welcome you to my Domestika course. I'm so glad to see you here!

 Let's start with the introductions. In this unit I am going to tell you about my journey as an editorial designer and what my influences have been.

### Simple Systems

In this unit I will explain what editorial design is, since it is important to understand what this discipline encompasses. Next, we will go on to work with four objects that are simple, but that, precisely for this reason, both their structure and their details are important: a signage poster, an economic memory, a mobile phone reading page and the covers of a book collection.

### Complex Systems

Let's now move on to more complex editorial systems where page structure, image narrative and page structure are important. We're going to build a quality photo cookbook, a paper editorial newsletter, an architectural guide, and finally a furniture catalogue.

### Last Steps

For paper designs, it is important to properly close and send them to print. In this unit I will teach you how to do it, let's go for it.
