Books. Books. Many books. Still in the wishlist.

I have been so inspired these last few days. Just in three days I have been twice in Barnes and Nobles, as the same amount as what I did last semester!

I have also been online to check for new artists recently that I couldn't wait to introduce you, properly you already know but they are seriously amazing and talented that I would be show proud to have them featured on my blog.

I think the gallery thing still affects me somehow, which is nice, I suppose.

Yesterday morning, as usual, my instructor showed us some of his favorite graphic design magazines/ books that he liked; and this time, one of them seriously caught me in the eyes.

It's:

1. IdN Extra 03: Society 06.

I cannot find that many pictures online but since I have read it, I'm sure enough to say it's amazing. The paper is very rough, which bring a cool effect to its high-quality images. There are many inspiring pictures in the magazine and I'm just in love with it. 






Later when I got home after class, I got on their WEBSITE and found some other cool books.






2. IdN Extra 04: Most Wanted Volume 01.

These two make me want to cry:

Flawless.

And also, I found these on Amazon:



I have to say, I'm looking for good books about logo/ poster/ card design, color elements, and typography. I'm so much into them right now.

10 Associates featured in Los Logos Compass book


As you have seen, I haven't got the book yet but Los Logos: Compass this 5th edition seems to me is new, relevant, and has a great quality. Also it's just exactly what I'm looking: Lots of designs - aka pictures - but still has comprehensive educational information.




4.Nice To Meet You Too: Visual Greetings from Business Cards to Identify Packages.

What draws me to this book is its very nice cover and don't you notice it? It's about business cards!

Gorgeous images and massive great information, don't you agree?


Okay, so there are a few books more but Blogger is getting weird right now so I should stop here. I will bet back to it later.

I hope you enjoy this post.
Have a good day all (:


Finally it's Summer.
