Three new doses of words and pictures
Happy days, the library is stretching out for the Spring, with the early buds of new thinking blossoming from the pages. Okay enough now, 3 new books we've got that are worth checking out:
The Street Sketchbook is a cool compilation of many random urban scribblers stream of consciousness. It's a great feeler for the drive behind what's out there on the walls around us.
To compliment this, there's The Guerilla Art Kit. It's a fun DIY guide for how to create urban street work and get your thoughts into the world around us. I fear for the results this book inspires, but it's a bit of a poke at the 'creative currency' status we live in now.
Finally! If you were ever in any doubt about what branding is, 'What is Branding?' will set you straight. This series of 'What is' books are actually really good. Rather than positioning you as a f@*kwit with no idea, they're actually really good at taking the nonense out of the process and playing visual case studies out in a clear and straightforward way. Good on you Matthew Healey, I can't wait for the 'What is Agency Blogging' book!
