Books For Creatives

There are a lot of books that have publish with the title of creatives. Right here i want to introduce some of the book that i think not only good with its quality and also creative enough with the element and information inside.

D.I.Y.: Design It Yourself

Ellen Lupton. A sourcebook of creative project ideas for designers and would-be self publishers. T-shirts, blogs, business cards, stationery, gifts, wedding invitations, you name it, the book offers hip, cool designs and concepts to get the juices flowing. A bit short on nitty-gritty how-to details, but the book is long on inspiration and ideas.

Phaidon Design Classics

This three-volume set is just plain fun for anyone fascinated with design and the process of making beautiful things. The book is a compilation of 999 industrially manufactured products from the last 400 years. It makes for a sprawling history of modern design and a gorgeous collection, too, with over 4000 images. From the humble corkscrew to cars, furniture and airplanes, the book offers the backstory of each item including original drawings, prototypes and advertisements. A creative compendium.

Beautiful Evidence

Edward Tufte. Yale prof Edward Tufte is pretty much the guy when it comes to information design and presentation. His books are meticulously designed... rich, gorgeous, dense. Tufte's fourth and latest title is aptly named, drawing on beautiful examples of data presentation throughout the centuries, artifacts of exceptional aesthetics and clarity of information. As always, Tufte illuminates the links between art and science. Wise and wonderful.
