Welcome to The Designer’s Review of Books - a selection of books for the creative mind.

For sometime I have been looking for a site that only reviewed books on design and related areas rather than a blog or site that also reviewed books. I couldn’t find one (or not one that I liked) so I created the DRB. You can read more about the background, the people, the idea and why there is no apostrophe in the title here.

Over time there will be plenty of tweaks and changes, I’m sure, but we’ve tried to keep things simple and focus on the books and the reviews. The categories will expand automatically with the reviews (rather than going to dead category pages) and we have deliberately chosen simple ones such as 2D, 3D, Interactive, etc. The fine detail will be in the tags if we do our job right.

Upcoming reviews include slide:ology , a sneak preview of Dan Saffer’s Designing Gestural Interfaces and the sumptuous Kelvin: Colour Today . So add us to your feeds, tell your friends, sit back, relax and enjoy a good ogle at some of the most inspiring books around.
