Love this book! It's very inspiring to see the passions of other designers who enjoy the human elements of design as I do.
My only note is towards the seller. I found a small rip in the spine when it was listed as new but this does not affect other buyers.
As a designer in a more and more mechanized and impersonal world, YOU NEED THIS.
Rating: - Excellent
To tell you the truth, I bought this item on a whim. I was much more satisfied with this graphic design book than others I have purchased recently. It is excellent if you are a visual consumer like I am. I would highly recommend the seller. It was promptly sent and received. Thanks a million for this jewel!
Rating: - Excellent variety
This book is beautifully printed and bound. The work chosen covers a much broader range of techniques and visual styles than I'd anticipated when placing my order. It's a fantastic source of inspiration for graphic designers and artists of all disciplines. I wholeheartedly recommend it, especially at such an excellent price for a relatively large, hard cover book.
Rating: - Great!
I bought this book as a gift for someone else, but after seeing it in person I'm thinking of buying it for myself! It is a beautiful book!
Rating: - Very cool
When relying on a computer all day, this book lets you return to how it all began. Get creative! Draw, doodle, color, cut, create and interpret this into your latest computer-aided design.
