Dear Notebook reader,
We’ve been working in the field of presentation design for a decade now. Every single day we turn data and information into powerful presentations. We’ve failed. We’ve succeeded. But most importantly, we’ve learned.
At some point we started to compile all the most important lessons we’ve learned in a little notebook – as a way to get smarter and make sure we didn’t repeat the same mistakes over and over. A few notes quickly became a lot, and this notebook was born.
Basically, the notebook details everything you need to consider when working with presentations: lessons learned, insights and dos & don’ts. Based on our own experiences, we wanted to create useful, hands-on advice in a digestible format.
We use the notebook ourselves in our daily work. So this notebook also gives you the opportunity to benefit from our all the lessons we have learned and become a better designer.
Given that our knowledge and experience will keep evolving, so will this notebook. So follow our Instagram for updates.
We hope you enjoy our notebook!
All the best,
The Notebook

Hard-earned lessons from our notebook
about slides and presentation design.
Hands-on, honest and condensed.

Too many sounds can both be distracting and stressful. Be careful not to overcrowd the audio track. Good sound design is not necessarily realistic sound design, and not every possible sound needs to be included. Prioritise clarity and focus on what’s essential to enhance the story or action. – link to sound hierarchy
