What’s Coming Next?
We’re just getting started. Over the next few months, we’ll be rolling out new titles in the “From Concept to Creation” series.
At Sage Design Group, we believe that strong creativity is built on strong foundations. That’s why founder Annette C. Sage — an experienced designer, creative strategist, and passionate advocate for visual communication — created a new book series:
“From Concept to Creation: The Essential Library for Visual Thinkers”
Whether you’re designing a logo, building a website, capturing the perfect photograph, or animating a story, every great creation starts with an understanding of the fundamentals. This growing collection is designed for creatives, designers, and makers who want to sharpen their craft, deepen their knowledge, and create with more clarity and purpose across every medium.
UNDERSTANDING COLOR:
Fundamentals and Applications in Marketing — dive into how color shapes perception, influences behavior, and drives engagement in marketing.
FORM + FUNCTION:
Design Fundamentals for Visual Thinkers — a guide to mastering the principles of layout, balance, and composition.
THE ART OF TYPE DESIGN:
Modern Principles for Visual Communication — everything you need to know about typography, from letterform anatomy to font selection.
LIGHT + FOCUS:
Photography Fundamentals for Modern Creators — a practical guide to capturing compelling images through the power of light and composition.
CODE + CANVAS:
Web Design Fundamentals for the Modern Web — bridging creativity and functionality to design better digital experiences.
TIME + MOTION
Principles of Motion Graphics for Dynamic Design — bringing visuals to life with movement, timing, and storytelling.
In today’s fast-paced creative world, it’s easy to skip the basics in favor of the next big trend. But true innovation happens when you have a deep understanding of design principles — and can break the rules with purpose.

Branding for Startups and Small Businesses
There’s a misconception that branding is solely for established businesses with huge marketing budgets. Quite the contrary. Small businesses and Startups are the ones who need a strong brand strategy to remain competitive in a crowded market.
Using the Psychology of Color in Your Marketing
Color is the core of a brand. Brands strive to cultivate strong emotional connections with their customers. Understanding consumers’ cognitive biases allows marketing psychology and color psychology to predict buyer behavior.
Innovative + Sustainable Packaging
Initial perceptions endure, and you typically only have a few seconds to attract the attention of a potential consumer or buyer while occupying shelf space. Your product packaging is the first thing people see. Let's get the creative juices flowing.
