Speaking In Styles

Author

Speaking in Styles (Peachpit Press) was the first book on modern web typography written for designers — requiring a framework for translating visual design intuition into systematic CSS thinking. That cross-discipline translation — between how designers see and how developers build — is the same skill I bring to team workshops and UX coaching engagements today.

The book reframes CSS around common design tasks, walks through the grammar of the language, and shows how to translate visual specs into code that works on screen, in print, and on devices.
