I can be verbose. But I won’t be. Not now I’ve read this book. In design, every element needs to have reason to be there. As Dieter Rams said, less but better. And words are no different. So impressed with the audiobook of Smart Brevity, full of insights I needed to note, I’ve bought the hard copy to take my highlighter to. Excited to sit with a coffee and scrawl all over the currently pristine copy on my desk. Go get yourself a copy. We can compare notes. Kudos to authors Jim VandeHei, Mike Allen and Roy Schwartz.
