Universal Principles of Design by William Lidwell, Kritina Holden, Jill Butler

This reference distils over a hundred design principles — from Hick's Law to the Von Restorff effect — into single-spread entries, each with a clear definition, real-world examples across product, graphic and architectural design, and guidance on when the principle applies.

It is organised for browsing rather than cover-to-cover reading, cross-referenced so related principles point to each other, and deliberately spans disciplines so a UX designer and an industrial designer draw from the same underlying vocabulary. It has become a standard reference across design education.

A widely used design reference, now in an expanded fourth edition covering 125 principles.
